Robert Burrell Donkin commented on MSHADE-87: --------------------------------------------- Switching to commons-compress would allow shade to be applied to a variety of output formats. Given the ability to declare a structure (as suggested in this issue) this would make shade a powerful tool for application assembly. I would therefore favour a more general approach to the problem of structure, perhaps with convenience shortcuts for common formats. Not sure about the best way to describe it, though. > Shade with respect of packaging-type > ------------------------------------ > > Key: MSHADE-87 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSHADE-87 > Project: Maven 2.x Shade Plugin > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 1.4 > Reporter: Robert Scholte > > The current version of the maven-shade-plugin only support jar and equal > structured packaging types, but it would be great if it could shade war-files > as well. > At least the following should be changed: > * shaded classes shouldn't be placed in the root, but in WEB-INF/classes > * shaded artifacts should be removed from WEB-INF/lib -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
