----------------------------------
Summary: Cached Windows service executables can leak into
generated source packages
Key: MINIFI-420
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MINIFI-420
Project: Apache NiFi MiNiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Build
Affects Versions: 0.3.0
Reporter: Koji Kawamura
Assignee: Aldrin Piri
Fix For: 0.3.0
During the RC2 of the MiNiFi 0.3.0 release it was identified that the candidate
source package had executables in it related to the Windows service enablement.
The files are provided such that we cache them so that there is no need to
repeatedly download the package assembly.
Given that .exe is also in .gitignore, a git clean -fd would not remove these.
(-fxd would)
There are two options that come to mind to help remedy this issue and make
things a bit less error prone. One is to move the acquired executables and
package to target. However, given that most folks are likely to do a mvn clean
<goals> this would likely defeat the purpose of caching entirely. The other
option is to provide configuration to the maven source plugin to exclude these
items. This would allow us to more effectively cache these items but also
provide a clean source release that would function as anticipated on build.
