[jira] Commented: (MASSEMBLY-66) Ability to index into a nominated
dependency JAR to identify files to include in the assembly (Im thinking
.so/.dll etc)
[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-66?page=comments#action_57626 ]
Andy Brook commented on MASSEMBLY-66:
-------------------------------------
another possible workaround is to bodge the use of scope in the dependency, mark the dependency in question as say 'test', and refer to this scope in the dependencySets, identifying it specifically. Unfortunatly there is no include filter so this would unpack the classes also. messy.

> Im trying to bundle a SWT application, I'm almost there, the only thing missing is the ability to include .so files in the assembly that are currently stored inside a dependancy. As far as I can tell there is no neat way to pull a few files out of a given dependency...
> My example is the SWT libraries, the GTK linux specific JAR in the eclipse bundle also contain the native libraries. Ive renamed this to fit into a maven2 repository, but really dont want to have to copy the files manually.
> Ideally, I would like to be able to specify the dependency in mind and extend the fileSet element to allow the context of the include to work only within that dependency.
> If there is something Im missing and this can be done with existing plugins Id like to hear about it!
> eg:
> ::POM::
> <!--ECLIPSE SWT GTK-->
> <dependency>
> <groupId>org.eclipse.swt</groupId>
> <artifactId>gtk-linux-x86</artifactId>
> <version>3.1.1</version>
> <scope>runtime</scope>
> </dependency>
> ::assembly-descriptor.xml::
> <!-- /native -->
> <fileSet>
> <dependency>org.eclipse.swt:gtk-linux-x86:3.1.1</dependency>
> <outputDirectory>/lib</outputDirectory>
> <includes>
> <include>*.so</include>
> </includes>
> </fileSet>
