What are you trying to build?
The project will build one artifact and the assembly plug-in will build
another.
Are you sure you need 3 artifacts to be built?
We use maven to build web services which include both a client jar and a
war for the service but we only need 1 execution.

Hi,
I'm using the assembly plugin to package my project. I currently have two
assembly descriptors with two executions for my project which generates
distributions of the project for two different audiences:
<!-- Client distribution -->
<execution>
<id>client</id>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>single</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>src/main/assembly/dist-client.xml</descriptor>
</descriptors>
</configuration>
</execution>
<!-- Developer distribution -->
<execution>
<id>developer</id>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>single</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>src/main/assembly/dist-developer.xml</descriptor>
</descriptors>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
I'm using filters to substitute in the distributable jar filename, and they're
definitely part of the solution, but I also need the final filename, the
destination shell script names etc to represent the execution, so need
expressions that are visible to the assembly. It's a command line app and I
display different available actions depending on the distribution type passed
in on a system parameter, so the filtered shell script parameters an filenames
don't have to differ at all except for the 'client' vs 'developer' designator.
I'm currently maintaining two descriptors and set of distribution resources
which I want to avoid, but I can't seem to find a way of getting an expression
containing the execution id or another parameter unique to the execution to the
descriptor. I'd assume that if the expression is visible to the assembly, the
plugin will also be able to substitute it into my shell scripts to consolidate
the build into one assembly descriptor with two executions.
I've also had problems suppressing output using the jar-with-dependencies
assembly: I'd like to suppress the 'skipping' and Plexus configuration merge
related messages. Is this possible?
On the former, if have a Stackoverflow question if you're a member and you'd
like earn yourself some reputation:
