Awesome! That did the trick. I had been trying to use <packaging> before, didn't realize it should be <type>. Thanks!

Subject: Re: [m2] war as a dependency

I checked out the source for the maven-war-plugin and installed it in my local 
repository.  But when I try and do a 'mvn war:war' I'm still getting

required artifacts missing:
  com.contentconnections.mpl:mpl-common-webapp:jar:0.1-SNAPSHOT

So it looks like maven is still trying to download the artifact as a jar 
instead of as a war which is what mpl-common-webapps packaging is defined to be 
in it's pom.  Do I also need to use a snapshot version of maven to make this 
work or is there something else I'm missing?

Thanks for the help,
Rich

Hello all,

I thought I saw on the list some time ago that a pom for a war could specify another war artifact as a dependency with the idea being that the depended war would be unzipped and then the webapp from the current project would be copied over it. Is this only available in a snapshot version of the war plugin? Is it deployed anywhere? If not, where is the source repo for the war plugin? I tried looking at the project page for the plugin, but that has an invalid link http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/maven/components/trunk/maven-plugins/maven-war-plugin.
Plugins have moved
http://svn.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/maven/plugins/trunk/maven-war-plugin
