John Casey updated MASSEMBLY-229:
---------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 2.2
> Documentation of fileMode could be improved to avoid user trip hazard
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MASSEMBLY-229
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-229
> Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Environment: n/a
> Reporter: Kelvin Goodson
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.2
>
>
> The website documentation for the fileMode parameter that occurs in a number
> of places in the assembly descriptor format description such as [1] does show
> a leading 0 for its values, but it isn't clear that this is to declare the
> value as octal. Anyone who is used to using the chmod command on *nix
> doesn't expect to have to prefix the octal value with a 0, and therefore
> might assume the 0 to be an insignificant digit. It would be helpful to add
> a comment in the descriptions of these parameters that the value is
> interpreted as decimal unless preceded by a leading 0 to indicate an octal
> value.
> [1]
