Laird Nelson created MASSEMBLY-620:
--------------------------------------
Summary: The dependencySet/includes/include format is documented
incorrectly
Key: MASSEMBLY-620
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-620
Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.3
Reporter: Laird Nelson
The proper format for {{<include>}} elements should be:
{code}
groupId:artifactId:type:classifier[:version]
{code}
The
[documentation|http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/assembly.html#class_dependencySet]
given by the {{maven-assembly-plugin}} says (incorrectly):
{quote}
Artifact coordinatess may be given in simple groupId:artifactId form, or they
may be fully qualified in the form groupId:artifactId:type:version[:classifier].
{quote}
Additionally, the Sonatype book
[says|http://www.sonatype.com/books/mvnref-book/reference/assemblies-sect-controlling-contents.html#assemblies-sect-fine-tune]
(incorrectly? or maybe just confusingly):
{quote}
groupId:artifactId:type[:classifier]:version - full artifact identity
If you need to get really specific, you can specify all the coordinates.
