Stephen Connolly created MSHADE-152: ---------------------------------------
Summary: Shade plugin assumes all non-pom dependencies are .zip formatted files and should be on the classpath Key: MSHADE-152 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSHADE-152 Project: Maven 2.x Shade Plugin Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.0 Reporter: Stephen Connolly http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-shade-plugin/xref/org/apache/maven/plugins/shade/mojo/ShadeMojo.html#455 This selects from *all* artifacts, even those which are not addedToClasspath, e.g. see https://github.com/torquebox/jruby-maven-plugins/blob/master/gem-maven-plugin/src/main/resources/META-INF/plexus/components.xml#L89 The net result is that, for example, if you have a dependency of type gem shade will barf with the ugly [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-shade-plugin:2.0:shade (default) on project shade-gems: Error creating shaded jar: error in opening zip file ~/.m2/repository/rubygems/bundler/1.3.4/bundler-1.3.4.gem -> [Help 1] To my mind, the shade plugin should only shade artifacts that are added to the classpath and should ignore all non-classpath artifacts. Fixing this may result in breaking backwards compatibility if anyone is relying on the side-effects of the current broken behaviour, so perhaps the solution is to either add a flag, defaulting to false, which would enable the broken behaviour or else allow the explicit includes to pull the files back in... in any case may require a bump to 3.0 when this issue is fixed -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
