war:war not including version in artifact name

[Jose Gonzalez Gomez <jg...@opentechnet.com>]

    Hi there,

    I have a multiproject with a web module, with war as the default 
goal. Maven is generating the artifact without using the version 
provided. This version is defined in the parent project.xml, although I 
have tried to override it without success. Curiously, if I run the jar 
goal, instead of the war goal, the generated artifact includes the 
version in its name, and all the other modules are generating their 
corresponding artifacts without any problem... any ideas? (of course, I 
haven't defined maven.final.name)

    Thanks in advance
    Jose

Certainly because if you use the default deployment feature in your
web server, the context name for your web application is the same as
the war (without the .war extension).
For those users it is annoying to have a different context for each release.

You can redefine the maven.war.final.name property if you want to a
the release in the name.

    Ok, I have just found the explanation: maven.war.final.name defaults 
to |${pom.artifactId}.war|. Why does this plugin use this approach 
instead of using the same name schema than jar, ear, ejb... plugins? I 
find this confusing for newbies as me.

    Best regards
    Jose
