John Casey closed MASSEMBLY-480.
--------------------------------
Resolution: Won't Fix
Fix Version/s: 2.2-beta-6
Assignee: John Casey
The $(project.build.directory) directory of a project (usually target/) is
meant to be a workspace for various parts of the build to store temporary
files. It is not customary for plugins to clean up these temp files after a
build completes; that's the function of the maven-clean-plugin (mvn clean).
> Files with ending with a .formatted extention not cleaned up

> Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-5
> Environment: dev on windows, build runs on Linux
> Reporter: J T

> Fix For: 2.2-beta-6

>
> In the target directory below my project directory a folder called
> archive-tmp is created and never cleaned up. In it are directories ending in
> .formatted and files that were being copied as part of this task ending in
> .formatted. Also in the primary directory where the output of the build is
> placed there are tons of .formatted files co-mingled with regular files we
> want to output. Looking through some of the code I think the .formatted
> extention appears to be used to create temp files as things are copied around
> but I'm not sure why they are never being cleaned up. We use the outputed
> files placed in the target directory so this is causing us to get a bunch of
> unwanted files as part of our build output.
