[jira] Commented: (MNG-1449) Maven creates jar for a project without java sources

["Giorgio Gallo (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1449?page=comments#action_50630 ] 

Giorgio Gallo commented on MNG-1449:
------------------------------------

I have a general-purpose project to create patches for Saba LMS (http://saba.com) and theese patches may or may not consist of a few classes and a bunch on cocoon xml files which are to be run by a saba-provided utility to be merged into the main .ear.

I created a custom assembly to pakage the patch contents into a jar following saba patch expected format and wished I could use the same assembly descriptor whether or not the patch has classes. (Also, I don't like m2 to put unsolicited information in META-INF)

No problem anyway - i will just stick to ant :-)

Thank you for the great job developing m2!

> A jar file is generated even for projects with no java sources (ie: no src/main/java directory)  - this creates some problems with the current assembly implementation, since an horrible near-empty jar gets into the assembly.
