Removing version when creating a jar
I have a project A which i have successfully compiled and packaged. Now when
i try to run mvn install, it tries to create a jar into my local repository.
But its appending the verion also to the jar file which i really want to
avoid. For example in the pom.xml of project A file i have given
<project>
<groupId>A</groupId>
<artifactId>A</artifactId>
<packaging>jar</packaging>
<version>1.0</version>
</project>
So its creating a jar file as A-1.0.jar which i dont want to have I just
want it as A.jar. I believe version tag is mandatory as i tried removing it.
Please advice
Thanks in advance
Robin

No. The version is always placed in the name when uploaded into the
repository. There is not a way around this.

One of the reasons I do this now is because the new ejb3 spec allows for
looking up objects based on a class. These new jndi objects are scoped
based on the name of the ear. I remove the version so that I can keep
the same code and reference the objects through jndi the same way each
time. I believe there is a mechanism to override these names and
provide your own, but I'm just a lazy programmer...

Re: Removing version when creating a jar
Posted by Wayne Fay <wa...@gmail.com>.
I've never understood this desire to remove version numbers from Jars
built by Maven... In fact, I can't stand it when I run across a jar
with no version number and have to dig into it to find a version
either in a manifest or other random file.

sorry for butting in - but why would you want to do that?

Re: Removing version when creating a jar
Posted by RobJac <ro...@caritor.com>.
I have found a way to remove the version, in my ear pom xml i am using under
the configuration of my ear-plugin
<javaModule>
<groupId>Test</groupId>
<artifactId>Test</artifactId>
<bundleFileName>Test.jar</bundleFileName>
</javaModule>
<webModule>
<groupId>Test_WEB</groupId>
<artifactId>Test_WEB</artifactId>
<bundleFileName>Test_WEB.war</bundleFileName>
</webModule>

What I do to get around this is let maven do its thing then when I
deploy the jars, I use an ant task to copy the correct file out to my
server using the name minus the version.

Re: Removing version when creating a jar
Posted by RobJac <ro...@caritor.com>.
I can actually remove the version when i package, but when i execute mvn
installl for the project it again places the project-version.jar in my
localrepository under the following folder path
<localRepository>/{groupId}/{version}/project-version.jar. I am facing an
issue when i am trying to create an EAR. Since all the projects are getting
created from the the local repository all the projects are getting appended
with version number which I want to avoid. Please let me know how i can
avoid gettuing the version number appended when i execute mvn install for a
project or Can i over ride the name of the dependency project jars when
they are fetched from the repository?

Re: Removing version when creating a jar

You can remove the version number from your artifact by using the
following tag in your pom:
<build>
<finalName>${project.artifactId}</finalName>
</build>
