Issues related to snapshot versions of dependencies and filenames

[Stefan Magnus Landrø <st...@gjensidige.no>]

Hi there,

We've run into the following issue:

Our war project depends on a certain number of in house jar projects. Now, 
these jar projects are under development, so we're using snapshots, and 
publishing these to our company repository on a regular basis.

Now, the thing is that on some environments, the snapshot-jars end up in 
the web-inf\lib dir with filenames as follows: 
jarproject-3.1-20060725.121629-3.jar, whereas on other environments they 
end up with the following filename jarproject-3.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

You might say, this is not a problem, because they get loaded by the 
classloader anyways, however, we're using a portal framework that requires 
the filenames to be known in advance.

Does anyone know why this happens, and how we can get around this issue?

Kind regards,
