I have an application which depends on a large number of 3rd party artifacts, and which uses webstart to launch. Webstart requires all Jars to be signed using the same certificate. Although the webstart-maven-plugin can take care of the signing, there are so many jar files that it takes quite a long time to sign them all every time I build.
Since the 3rd party artifacts rarely change, I'd like to sign them all once, and store them in a local repository and have the projects all depend on the signed versions. Is there any quick way of doing this? I was thinking of something that creates a maven project for each dependency which pulls in the JAR, signs it then deploys it to my repository using a different version (eg, commons.beanutils-1.8.3.jar -> commons.beanutils-1.8.3-signed.jar). Any help would be appreciated.
