Generate MANIFEST file using maven-bundle-plugin ??

[cmoulliard]

Hi,

I'm confronted to the following problem(s).

I create a maven project that I use to package my WAR project for Spring DM server. When I launch the command 'mvn package', my war is well created but
a) the MANIFEST file (generated by bnd = maven-bundle-plugin) is created inside the folder WEB-INF and not at the root of the project

- META-INF
MANIFEST.MF (does not contain OSGI commands)
- WEB-INF
CLASSES
META-INF
MANIFEST.MF (generated by bnd)

Is there a way to instruct the plugin that the MANIFEST must be created for the WAR project and not the java classes ?
b) <import-bundle> or <import-library> are not added to the manifest. <import-bundle> and <import-libary> tags have been added in the <instructions> tag of the maven-bundle-plugin.

How can the plugin process <import-bundle> or <import-library> instructions ?

KR,

Charles Moulliard

In case anyone finds this post via Google, the answer is to configure the maven-war-plugin to explicitly set the manifest location:

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.apache.felix</groupId>
  <artifactId>maven-bundle-plugin</artifactId>
  <configuration>
    <supportedProjectTypes>
      <supportedProjectType>bundle</supportedProjectType>
      <supportedProjectType>war</supportedProjectType>
    </supportedProjectTypes>
  </configuration>
  <executions>
    <execution>
      <id>bundle-manifest</id>
      <phase>process-classes</phase>
      <goals>
        <goal>manifest</goal>
      </goals>
      <configuration>
        <!-- config and instructions here -->
      </configuration>
    </execution>
  </executions>
</plugin>

<plugin>
  <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
  <configuration>
    <archive>
      <manifestFile>${project.build.outputDirectory}/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF</manifestFile>
    </archive>
  </configuration>
</plugin>
