i'm using the assembly plug-in to create an assembly in the form of a directory which contains my jar file which is created by maven and it also contains a lib directory with all the jar files that are dependencies of this build
this is what my assembly xml looks like <assembly> <id>dist</id> <formats> <format>dir</format> </formats> <includeBaseDirectory>false</includeBaseDirectory> <fileSets> <fileSet> <directory>target</directory> <outputDirectory></outputDirectory> <includes> <include>*.jar</include> </includes> </fileSet> </fileSets> <dependencySets> <dependencySet> <outputDirectory>/lib</outputDirectory> <unpack>false</unpack> <scope>runtime</scope> </dependencySet> </dependencySets> </assembly> when i run $>mvn clean package assembly:assembly i get my ${project}.jar in the target directory and i also get a directory called ${project.build.dir} inside the target directory. this directory contains my ${project}.jar and a /lib directory with all the dependency jars... i want to rename ${project.build.dir} that maven creates to just ${project}.dir any idea how i can do that? please help. thanks. -uk
