You can overwrite individual default entries with own ones. We configured in your company: ========= %< ============== <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId> <version>${version.org.apache.maven.plugins.jar}</version> <configuration> <archive> <addMavenDescriptor>false</addMavenDescriptor> <manifest> <addDefaultSpecificationEntries>true</addDefaultSpecificationEntries> <addDefaultImplementationEntries>true</addDefaultImplementationEntries> </manifest> <manifestEntries> <Specification-Version>${project.info.majorVersion}. ${project.info.minorVersion}</Specification-Version> <X-Compile-Source>${java.version.source}</X-Compile-Source> <X-Compile-Target>${java.version.target}</X-Compile-Target> <X-Builder>Maven ${maven.version}</X-Builder> <X-BuildTime>${maven.build.timestamp}</X-BuildTime> </manifestEntries> </archive> </configuration> </plugin> ========= %< ============== Which produces something like: ========= %< ============== Manifest-Version: 1.0 Archiver-Version: Plexus Archiver Created-By: 1.6.0_23 (Sun Microsystems Inc.) Built-By: joehni Build-Jdk: 1.6.0_23 Specification-Title: Our Project Specification-Vendor: Our Company Implementation-Title: Our Project Implementation-Version: 2.3.0-SNAPSHOT Implementation-Vendor-Id: com.company Implementation-Vendor: Our Company Specification-Version: 2.3 X-BuildTime: 2011-01-17T17:56 CET X-Builder: Maven 3.0.2 X-Compile-Source: 1.6 X-Compile-Target: 1.6 ========= %< ============== Recognize the entry for the Specification-Version that is not the default one normally added. I am quite sure, it is possible to overwrite "Created- By" and especially "Build-Jdk" also. Just in case your're interested where the values for the variables above all came from: They are setup with the build-helper-maven-plugin that is added in our company POM to the build section i.e. the variables are available in all our projects automatically: ========= %< ============== <plugin> <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId> <artifactId>build-helper-maven-plugin</artifactId> <executions> <execution> <id>versions</id> <phase>generate-resources</phase> <goals> <goal>maven-version</goal> <goal>parse-version</goal> </goals> <configuration> <propertyPrefix>project.info</propertyPrefix> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin> ========= %< ============== I already proposed some months ago the change for the specification version to such a x.y pattern, since it may not contain normally any alphabetical character (-SNAPSHOT violates the spec) and because we keep binary compatibility for minor releases, but I got no reaction on the list. - Jörg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@commons.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@commons.apache.org
