FW: Weird behaviour if I overload the java:jar goal
Hi Guys
I have discovered a big Sun's Java Web Start such that it refuses to load
maven generated jars! The reason is that maven adds custom entries to the
manifest and Java WebStart does not like this.
To get around this we created a custom version of the java:jar goal in our
maven.xml file and noticed some weird maven behaviour:
If I use the following maxen.xml...
<project default="java:jar"
xmlns:j="jelly:core"
xmlns:m="maven"
xmlns:reactor="reactor"
xmlns:deploy="deploy"
xmlns:maven="jelly:org.apache.maven.jelly.tags.project.MavenTagLibrary">
<goal name="custom-build"
prereqs="java:jar">
<echo>executing custom build....</echo>
</goal>
<goal name="java:jar"
description="custom jar...">
<echo>executing custom jar</echo>
<jar destfile="target/customjar.jar">
...
</jar>
</goal>
</project>
If I then run "maven custom-build" I get what I expect...
java:jar:
[echo] executing custom jar
[jar] Building jar: /Users/andy/projects/staticMesh/target/customjar.jar
custom-build:
[echo] executing custom build....
BUILD SUCCESSFUL
However, if I then run "maven test custom-build" it runs the tests and the
original java:jar...
java:prepare-filesystem:
java:compile:
java:jar-resources:
test:prepare-filesystem:
test:test-resources:
test:compile:
normal compiler output...
test:test:
junit test output...
java:jar:
[jar] Building jar: /Users/andy/projects/test/target/original-1.0.4.jar
I looked at submitting a patch, but could not work out what was going on...
Cheers
Andy

Posted by Ben Walding <be...@walding.com>.
It is caused by a faulty manifest ExtensionList entry.
It's been fixed in CVS, but still affects 1.0beta9
