Jason Grant commented on MNG-483: --------------------------------- A bit of background with regard to Brett's mention of me looking at the attachment of artifacts, above. I've been using assembly to produce zip files, and asked questions on IRC about how best to get these across to the local repo so that other project could depend on them. If I understand correctly, Brett suggested an enhancement to AssemblyMojo that will attach all assemblies to the project as artifacts. Then, when the project is installed, these artifacts will wind up in the local repo. There was some talk of only doing this if the project packaging was of [new] type "assembly", but I think we agreed to do it whatever the packaging is (see below). I'm happy to have a go at this - I'll build it on top of my contribution sent as a patch in http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-723 if other folk agree. So just to be clear, my contribution to this issue has quite limited scope. I'm too green to understand some of the content above. ----------------------- (15:58:29) jasong: [junk snipped] just thinking ahead though - I was going to modify AssemblyMojo to simply attach each archive to the project. Is that a reasonable start, or should I be considering what the project's packaging is? (16:05:05) brett: jasong: attach away! That's great, because then anyone generating an assembly (even for a jar) will be able to install/deploy it.
