[m2e-users] Copying MANIFEST.MF to generated bundle

[PIYUSH BAJAJ <bishups@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Experts,

I have a OSGi plugin project and I'm creating a jar using 'mvn install'

Packaging type = 'jar'

I have done few changes in MANIFEST.MF in this plugin, which i want to bundle/copy inside this jar. 

Defined resource as:

                         <resource>

<directory>${basedir}/META-INF</directory>

<includes>

<include>MANIFEST.MF</include>

</includes>

<targetPath>META-INF</targetPath>

</resource>

But the problem is original MANIFEST.MF is not copied to META-INF folder of the jar, rather it's a empty MANIFEST with just some basic information like:

Manifest-Version: 1.0

Archiver-Version: Plexus Archiver

Created-By: Apache Maven

Built-By: I045564

Build-Jdk: 1.6.0_29

If i don't give <targetPath> tag, then original MANIFEST.MF is copied to root directory of the jar rather in META-INF folder.

How do i overwrite plugin MANIFEST.MF on META-INF/MANIFEST.MF ?

Please help.

Best Regards,

Piyush
