Hi,
I am using a multi-module java project with a root pom to create a zip
file with the assembly plugin. The zip file contains some 3rd party
platform-specific files (dll's for windows, dylib for mac, .so for
linux).
This works fine when using following instructions in the root pom:
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<appendAssemblyId>false</appendAssemblyId>
<finalName>myName</finalName>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>assembly.xml</descriptor>
</descriptors>
</configuration>
</plugin>
Maven is started from command line using "mvn clean package
assembly:assembly"
The resulting assembly (zip file) contains all the files that are
platform specific I would like to create a specific zip file for each
target platform, containing only the files for that platform. I could
use a specific assembly.xml file for each target platform, and add this
to the descriptors.
<descriptors>
<descriptor>assemblyWin.xml</descriptor>
<descriptor>assemblyMac.xml</descriptor>
<descriptor>assemblyLinux.xml</descriptor>
</descriptors>
This works, but I cannot specify the final name for each of the
descriptors. The 3 zip files have the same name, so only the last one is
available (the 2 other files are overwritten).
I tried specifying different executions for the assembly plugin, but
then I get an error that the assembly descriptors cannot be found.
Apparently this does not work in the root pom of a multi-module project.

<finalName>myNameMac</finalName>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>assemblyMac.xml</descriptor>
</descriptors>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
Is there any possibility to have different zip file assemblies without
having to create different root pom's, so I don't need to recompile the
different packages over and over again?
Thanks,
Jan
