[ANN] Maven Assembly Plugin 2.2-beta-3 Released
The Maven team is pleased to announce the release of the Maven Assembly
Plugin, version 2.2-beta-3
This plugin is used to create custom archives using the build output,
dependencies, and other files owned by a Maven project. You can find
more information, including instructions and examples, at:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/
You should specify the version in your project's plugin configuration:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.2-beta-3</version>
</plugin>

Re: [ANN] Maven Assembly Plugin 2.2-beta-3 Released
Posted by TM <Th...@unibas.ch>.
This was eagerly awaited. Thanks for the good work!
However, I've found one minor difference that caused a change in my assembly
descriptors when upgrading from 2.2-beta-1 to 2.2-beta-3. So far, it was
possible to exclude an entire directory from a fileset just by listening its
name, as in the following exclude ('bin' folder):
<fileSet>
<directory>assemblies/minimal/src/main/release</directory>
<outputDirectory>/</outputDirectory>
<excludes>
<exclude>bin</exclude>
</excludes>
</fileSet>
With the upgrade to beta-3 this does not to work any longer because the
target assembly contained the bin folder (and its content). I had to replace
the exclude tag as follows:
<fileSet>
<directory>assemblies/minimal/src/main/release</directory>
<outputDirectory>/</outputDirectory>
<excludes>
<exclude>bin/**</exclude>
</excludes>
</fileSet>
I cross checked the maven-assembly-plugin Web site for documentation of the
pattern format without success. I guess, somewhere, it is documented, but I
couldn't find it (as fast as I would like to). It would be good to update
the documentation and add links to the place where the pattern format is
documented.
Regards,
Thorsten
