Repackaging dependent project artifacts

[Ryan Smith <rs...@rogers.com>]

I'm investigating switching our build process from Ant to Maven.

 

I've run through the multi-project example, but I'm unclear as to how I
would embed one project's jar artifact within another.  I kind of expected
to be able to specify a package type of "jarjar" to ensure that the
artifacts (simple jars) of any dependent projects are included, but that the
default packaging types appear to be limited to jar/ejb/war.  I'm assuming
the package types are extensible and I'm guessing that someone has already
had the same need.  Can someone point me in the right direction?

 

Thanks,

Ryan

You may be in need of the assembly plugin to do your "jarjar" package. 

Here's the link: http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin
