William Ferguson commented on MJAR-83:
--------------------------------------
The workaround for this is to
* List all deps with a scope of compile
* Execute *mvn* *compiler:compile* *jar:jar*
Neither of is nice and both of which is required.
NB I forgot to say why we need to create a Jar with no content other than a
manifest classpath.
Its because the Windows line length limit precludes classpaths that are too
long, so we generate a Jar with a manifest classpath that includes all the
target libraries and just include it.
But its seems like a problem in the general sense in any case.
> addClasspath is not respected for runtime dependencies

> Key: MJAR-83
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAR-83
> Project: Maven 2.x Jar Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.1, 2.2
> Reporter: William Ferguson
> Attachments: pom.xml
>
>
> maven-jar-plugin does not resolve dependencies itself, so specifying
> {code}
> <configuration>
> <archive>
> <manifest>
> <addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
> </manifest>
> </archive>
> </configuration>
> {code}
> will add no dependencies for
> {noformat}
> mvn jar:jar
> {noformat}
> And even
> {noformat}
> mvn compiler:compile jar:jar
> {noformat}
> will only add compile time dependencies, not runtime dependencies, presumably
> because the maven-compiler-plugin causes resolution of the compile time
> dependencies.
> See the attached POM.
> There is *no* manifest classpath generated by
> {noformat}
> mvn jar:jar
> {noformat}
> The manifest classpath generated by
> {noformat}
> mvn compiler:compile jar:jar
> {noformat}
> only contains commons-codec which is the compile time dependency.
> There needs to be a way to add runtime dependences to the manifest classpath
> of the jar.
> And preferably not requiring some other plugin to resolve the dependencies
> first.
