Classifier for deployed JARs

[SKrepkovich <sk...@gmail.com>]

I've been searching the forums for an answer to this, but haven't found
anything concrete...

I want to build & deploy a JAR (mvn deploy) and include a classifier
(preferably using -Dclassifier=something) such that the resulting filename
is something like: plugin.name-1.0.0-20080528-123456-01-SDK.jar (where the
20080528-123456-01 are maven's default build date-time-number, which I have
already). 

I can set the <classifier> tag in the POM, but then the deploy phase creates
2 files, one with and one without the classifier, and I have to edit the POM
to change this - I'd rather do it from the command line since I have another
tag -DattachSource that will be used in conjunction with the 'SDK'.  

Regards,
Steve

Set the classifier in the pom, how?  When I configure the jar plugin
with a classifier, I see this, indicating only one artifact:

[INFO] [install:install]
[INFO] No primary artifact to install, installing attached artifacts instead.
[INFO] Installing
/private/tmp/jar-with-classifier/target/jar-with-classifier-1.0-SNAPSHOT-SDK.jar
to /Users/wsmoak/.m2/repository/com/example/jar-with-classifier/1.0-SNAPSHOT/jar-with-classifier-1.0-SNAPSHOT-SDK.jar

Unfortunately, deployment then fails:

[INFO] [deploy:deploy]
altDeploymentRepository = null
[INFO] Retrieving previous build number from repo
[INFO] repository metadata for: 'snapshot
com.example:jar-with-classifier:1.0-SNAPSHOT' could not be found on
repository: repo, so will be created
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Error deploying artifact:
/private/tmp/jar-with-classifier/target/classes (No such file or
directory)

To test, I added this to the quickstart project:

  <build>
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
        <configuration>
          <classifier>SDK</classifier>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>

(And distributionManagement which was required to test deployment.)
