-------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Bug
You cannot always overrid with
[{{-Duser.name=<any>}}|http://maven.apache.org/shared/maven-archiver/examples/manifest.html].
> provide property to override Built-By attribute in the manifest
> ---------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MJAR-155
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAR-155
> Project: Maven JAR Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 2.4
> Reporter: Jae Gangemi
> Priority: Minor
>
> i would like to override the Built-By attribute that gets injected into my
> manifest when the jar is packaged.
> according to this page:
> http://maven.apache.org/maven-1.x/plugins/jar/properties.html
> the user.name property is used as a default value but i am unable to override
> that property anywhere in my pom.
> instead, i have to do this:
> <plugin>
> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
> <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
> <version>2.4</version>
> <configuration>
> <archive>
> <manifestFile>${basedir}/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF</manifestFile>
> <manifestEntries>
> <Built-By>${jar.packaged.by}</Built-By>
> </manifestEntries>
> </archive>
> </configuration>
> </plugin>
> inside the project's pom so i can override the value (jar.packaged.by is
> defined in my setting.xml file) which is rather annoying b/c i need to make
> that change for multiple projects (they are all independent of each other so
> i don't want a parent pom then can inherit from).
> it would be great if there was a simple property exposed instead of having to
> alter the plugin configuration.
> thanks!!
