SOLVED ------- I made one mistake in the components.xml -- the packaging element should match the role-hint element. The ANT script task (apparently) must be used to access Maven's object model -- I have used the following code in my.build.xml file:
<script language="beanshell"><![CDATA[ mavenProject.getArtifact().setFile( new java.io.File( myWarPath ) ); ]]></script> This of course requires maven-script-beanshell, bsf and ant-apache-bsf dependencies. Is there a more elegant way? E.g. using only clean ANT syntax? Adrian.
