Brett Porter closed MNG-2479.
-----------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Fix Version/s: (was: Reviewed Pending Version Assignment)
the call for this seems to have evaporated over the past couple of years as the
EE plugins have become capable at naming their dependencies. It's unlikely
we'll modify the dependency model significantly in the near future due to the
implications for the repository.
> add support for optional 'packagingName' element in dependency blocks

> Key: MNG-2479
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2479
> Project: Maven 2
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Dependencies
> Affects Versions: 2.0.4
> Reporter: Ian Springer
>
> The various deployment artifact types (war, ear, sar, etc.) package their
> dependencies within the target archive during the package phase. For example,
> the war plugin includes jar dependencies within WEB-INF/lib, and the ear
> plugin includes jar and J2EE dependencies at the top level. Sometimes it is
> not desirable to package the dependencies with their full Maven-repo-style
> names (i.e. artifactName-version.xar). In particular, the version component
> is often not desired. Currently, some plugins provide a way to rename these
> dependency artifacts when they are packaged (e.g. the ear plugin), and others
> do not (e.g. the war plugin), making it necessary to use an antrun or
> dependency plugin hack to rename the artifacts as desired. I think it would
> be much nicer if there was a standard way to specify a "packaging name" (or
> whatever other name makes sense) for a dependency in its dependency block in
> the pom. Then all plugins that package their dependencies could leverage this
> standard setting.
> Here is an example of a war dependency declared in an ear pom:
> <dependency>
> <groupId>org.jboss.on</groupId>
> <artifactId>on-enterprise-gui-portal</artifactId>
> <version>2.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
> <type>war</type>
> <packagingName>on-portal</packagingName>
> </dependency>
> This would cause the war to be bundled in the ear with the filename
> "on-portal.war", instead of the default
> on-enterprise-gui-portal-2.0-SNAPSHOT.war.
