This is exactly what we do here.
To do so, we run maven war goals (multiproject here...) and then copy
the generated war file(s) through the dist:prepare-bin-filesystem
postgoal such as:
<!-- copying war files in distrib -->
<maven:reactor basedir="${basedir}"
excludes="*/project.xml" includes="smartdocument.services/*/project.xml"
postProcessing="true" collectOnly="true" collectionVar="multiprjs"
ignoreFailures="false" />
<j:forEach var="project" items="${multiprjs}">
<echo>Copying
${project.getContext().getVariable("maven.build.dir")}/${project.getArtifactId()}.war
to ${maven.dist.bin.assembly.dir}</echo>
<copy
file='${project.getContext().getVariable("maven.build.dir")}/${project.getArtifactId()}.war'
tofile="${maven.dist.bin.assembly.dir}/${project.getArtifactId()}.war" />
</j:forEach>
and also don't forget to delete the generated jar file:
<delete file="${maven.dist.bin.assembly.dir}/${maven.final.name}.jar" />
As for the docs, same mechanism and still in this postgoal.

Hello maven-users,
I would like to use Maven (1.02) for a production environment
involving mostly Tomcat servers.
My intention was to use the distribution plugin to upload an archive
with both the docs and the .war file for a webapp. However the
"maven dist" target packs an archive with a jar file, and i could not
find a property that would let me build the archive with a war file
instead of a jar file.
Using maven war:dist is not a good solution for me, because i need to
provide the docs with the webapp.
Is there a simple way (maven.xml, ...) to build a tar.gz file with a
.war and the docs? Or should i write my own plugin?
Best thanks
