Alin Dreghiciu commented on PAXRUNNER-164:
------------------------------------------
I have no strong opinion on this one. But it helps David, I hope we just can
remove the version number. I kind of like it because is easy t figure out the
jar version, but there are also other ways to do that.
David, why don't you also upload the script that you are using? Maybe is
helpful to somebody else, so we may include it into future distributions.

> Key: PAXRUNNER-164
> URL: http://issues.ops4j.org/jira/browse/PAXRUNNER-164
> Project: Pax Runner
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: David Leangen
> Assignee: Alin Dreghiciu
> Priority: Minor

> Just wondering something...
> Would it be possible to remove the version number from the jar file when
> creating a distribution of pax-runner. The reason is this:
> When I install pax-runner to my file system, the directory structure looks
> like this:
> $PAX_HOME
> pax-runner-$VERSION
> bin
> pax-run
> pax-run.bat
> pax-runner-$VERSION.jar
> What I like to do is create a symbolic link in $PAX_HOME called "pax-runner"
> that points to the current pax-runner directory. This way, to update my
> pax-runner, all I need to do is copy the new files and update by symbolic
> link.
> Because, however, the jar holds the version number, this means that in
> addition to having to update just my symbolic link, I also have to update any
> scripts I have that make use of pax-runner, which is not a nice thing to have
> to do.
> So, it would be really nice to change pax-runner-$VERSION.jar to just
> pax-runner.jar.
> Thank you!
