--------------------------------------------------------------------- View the issue: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/ViewIssue.jspa?key=MPJAR-23 Here is an overview of the issue: --------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: MPJAR-23 Summary: shortDescription can produce "invalid manifest format" Type: Bug Status: Open Priority: Major Original Estimate: 2 hours Time Spent: Unknown Remaining: 2 hours Project: maven-jar-plugin Assignee: Jason van Zyl Reporter: bryan thompson Created: Mon, 5 Apr 2004 4:00 PM Updated: Mon, 5 Apr 2004 4:00 PM Environment: Windows, JDK1.4.1 Description: The content of the shortDescription element from the POM is used when generating the JAR manifest. Leading and trailing newlines currently are passed through, which results in an "invalid manifest format", e.g., when trying to start a web application that bundles a JAR created by Maven. Recommendation: Strip leading and trailing whitespace before writing the JAR manifest and truncate at 72 characters for backwards compatibility with some broken JAR processers. Emit a warning message if the shortDescription length is more than 72 characters. Update the maven POM documentation to reflect that the JAR manifest uses this information and these constraints on the legal content of the shortDescription POM property. --------------------------------------------------------------------- JIRA INFORMATION: This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
