[jira] Commented: (MPRELEASE-11) does not handle non-jar dependencies

Fredrik Vraalsen commented on MPRELEASE-11:
-------------------------------------------

I'm using the release:setup-distribution-bin goal to copy dependencies into my target directory before generating an IzPack installer using the izpack plugin. However, the release plugin does not work for copying in non-jar dependencies, e.g. EJB and EAR artifacts.  Do you have any suggestions as to which other plugin/goal to use instead in order to copy in the dependencies before packaging? I cannot find anything similar in the scm plugin.

Here is the relevant part of my project.properties:

maven.release.distribution.categories=\
	common-endorsed:common-pack/lib/endorsed,\
	client:client-pack/client,\
	server-deploy:server-pack/server/default/deploy,\
	server-lib:server-pack/server/default/lib

and my project.xml contains dependencies such as

		<dependency>
			<groupId>jboss</groupId>
			<artifactId>jbossall-client</artifactId>
			<version>4.0.2</version>
			<properties>
				<category>client</category>
			</properties>
		</dependency>


Cheers,

Fredrik
