The Apache Maven team is pleased to announce the release of the Apache Maven Assembly Plugin, version 2.5.5.

The Assembly Plugin for Maven is primarily intended to allow users to aggregate the project output along with its dependencies, modules, site documentation, and other files into a single distributable archive.

This release fixes a serious problem with 2.5.5 when creating jar files, MASSEMBLY-768.

You should specify the version in your project's plugin configuration:

1<plugin>
2  <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
3  <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
4  <version>2.5.5</version>
5</plugin>

  • MASSEMBLY-768 - JarInputStream unable to find manifest created by version 2.5.4
  • MASSEMBLY-769 - ZIP fileMode permissions not properly set with dependencySet and unpackOptions

Enjoy,
