Inclusion of DEPENDENCIES file in the 'bin' descriptor
------------------------------------------------------
Key: MASSEMBLY-497
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-497
Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-5
Reporter: clement escoffier
The bin assembly descriptor does not include DEPENDENCIES files. In Apache
Felix, we're using this file to list our dependencies. Despite this file it's
not mandatory, it's always nice to inform users about projects dependencies.
We recently realized that -bin artifacts generated during releases, do not
include DEPENDENCIES files.
Is it possible to include such file by default by just modifying the includes
files in the 'bin' assembly descriptor:
<fileSet>
<includes>
<include>${project.basedir}/README*</include>
<include>${project.basedir}/LICENSE*</include>
<include>${project.basedir}/NOTICE*</include>
<include>${project.basedir}/DEPENDENCIES*</include> <!-- Added -->
</includes>
</fileSet>
Thanks.
