[jira] Updated: (MNG-1380) assembly jar-with-dependencies does not utilize or provide for manifest configuration

["Michael Heuer (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

     [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1380?page=all ]

Michael Heuer updated MNG-1380:
-------------------------------

    Attachment: mng-1380-src.tar.gz

In the attached example, Main-Class manifest configuration information is added to the pom.xml for the jar plugin:

  <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
        <configuration>
	  <archive>
	    <manifest>
	      <mainClass>org.apache.maven.plugins.App</mainClass>
	    </manifest>
	  </archive>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>

such that the manifest for the jar created in
$ mvn package

contains

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Archiver-Version: Plexus Archiver
Created-By: Apache Maven
Built-By: heuer
Build-Jdk: 1.5.0_05
Extension-Name: mng-1380
Implementation-Title: mng-1380
Implementation-Version: 1.0-SNAPSHOT
Main-Class: org.apache.maven.plugins.App

and runs

$ java -jar target/mng-1380-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar 
MNG-1380


The jar created with
$ mvn assembly:assembly -DdescriptorId=jar-with-dependencies

does not contain the Main-Class attribute

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Archiver-Version: Plexus Archiver
Created-By: 1.5.0_05-44 ("Apple Computer, Inc.")

and as such does not run

$ java -jar target/mng-1380-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar 
Failed to load Main-Class manifest attribute from
target/mng-1380-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

It would be desireable if the maven-assembly-plugin was able to re-use the manifest configuration information provided for the maven-jar-plugin or was to provide similar manifest configuration options itself.
