William Puhl commented on MASSEMBLY-828:
----------------------------------------
The assembly that we are using moves two file sets to the output directory in
the assembly descriptor. These files sets have duplicate files in them, so the
purpose of copying both files sets to the output directory was so that the
second fileset would overwrite the duplicate files from the first fileset. In
version 2.1 of the assembly plugin it did this. In versions above that, the
affect of copying the second fileset does not overwrite the existing files from
the first fileset.

> Key: MASSEMBLY-828
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MASSEMBLY-828
> Project: Maven Assembly Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.2
> Reporter: William Puhl
> Fix For: 2.1
>
>
> Part of the assembly is to copy xml files from the project to the output
> directory. In versions after 2.1, maven-assmbly-plugin is dropping some
> attributes that are defined in the xml as it copies it to the output
> directory. This started occurring after version 2.1.
> Example:
> assembly includes test.xml to be copied to output directory. test.xml looks
> like this:
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
> <Transformations xmlns="etl.vertexinc.com"
> xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";>
> <Transformation name="xxxx" destSchemaReleaseId="xxxx">
> <TransformationRule srcDataSet="xxxx" srcfield="*"
>
> destDataSet="xxxx"
>
> type="ASSIGN"/>
> </Transformation>
> <Transformation name="xxxx" destSchemaReleaseId="xxxx"
> customTask="some.package.name">
> <TransformationRule srcDataSet="xxxx"
>
> srcField="*"
>
> destDataSet="xxxx"
>
> type="ASSIGN" />
> </Transformation>
> </Transformations>
> After maven-assembly-plugin completes the assembly, the packaged jar contains
> test.xml like this:
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
> <Transformations xmlns="etl.vertexinc.com"
> xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";>
> <Transformation name="xxxx" destSchemaReleaseId="xxxx">
> <TransformationRule srcDataSet="xxxx" srcfield="*"
>
> destDataSet="xxxx"
>
> type="ASSIGN"/>
> </Transformation>
> <Transformation name="xxxx" destSchemaReleaseId="xxxx">
> <TransformationRule srcDataSet="xxxx"
>
> srcField="*"
>
> destDataSet="xxxx"
>
> type="ASSIGN" />
> </Transformation>
> </Transformations>
> The attribute for the 2nd <Transformation> element
> (customTask="some.package.name") is missing.
