Dependency version in manifest

Is there a way to inject the dependency version info of a project into
the JARs manifest?

TIA
John

Re: Dependency version in manifest

Posted by Brett Porter <br...@apache.org>.
the POM (both in XML and properties form) are already included in the  
JAR by default, so you can retrieve the version from those.

Also see: http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-manifest.html for  
how to add the version to the manifest itself.

I didn't want a classpath entry, so I decided to include the pom in the
JAR as a workaround.

Thanks,
John

RE: Dependency version in manifest

Posted by Richard Chamberlain <ri...@caplin.com>.
You can specify the dependencies on the classpath of a manifest:

    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
        <configuration>
          <archive>
            <manifest>
              <addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
            </manifest>
          </archive>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
	<plugin>

See the Jar Plugin documentation:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-jar-plugin/

Is that what you were after?

Regards,

Richard
