Guys,
I apologize if this is not correct list and please let me know if there is different one for such kind of questions but I would like to ask about http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-332 issue the guys who are familiar with assembly plugin's code. DefaultAssemblyArchiver class contains createArchiver method where the following is written: ... List extraFinalizers = null; if ( "jar".equals( format ) ) { extraFinalizers = Collections.singletonList( new ManifestCreationFinalizer( configSource.getProject(), configSource.getJarArchiveConfiguration() ) ); } ... Could you please tell me what are constraints for having Manifest entries only for jar and not for other formats? Maybe John Casey can comment since he promised already do this here - http://www.nabble.com/maven-assembly-bug-MASSEMBLY-74-td18066366.html Best regards, Juri.
