Trey Sleeper commented on MWEBSTART-8:
--------------------------------------
I've attached the diff. My main concern with my patch is that it only
addresses the "legacy" classes such as Generator, JarResource etc. Since I'm
still using the jnlp-inline goal, I didn't touch the new JarResourcesGenerator,
VersionXmlGenerator and others.
These classes follow a similar generator pattern, so I could add the new
logic to them also if that looks to be the new direction of development of this
plugin. Jerome, can you let us know?

> nativelib are resiyrces that are tagged in the following way in a jnlp file:
> <resources os="Windows">
> <nativelib href="thedll.jar"/>
> </resources>
> To support nativelib at the same level of simplicity that the usual
> dependencies are supported requires to:
> - automatically identify them from
> - automatically wrap .dll .so files in jar files
> Q: what about jar files that are architecture dependent?
> In maven 1 it was possible to attach some properties to the dependencies. But
> we cannot use that anymore.
> We could
> 1- mark the dependencies in the pom using the correct <type> in the pom. E.g.
> <type>dll</type>
> 2- make the plugin automatically wrap the native dependency inside a jar.
> 3- automatically fill up the <nativelib> elements using some sort of filter
> mecanism
> <resources os="Windows">
> $allDependencies.filter("dll")
> </resources>
> ??
> $dependencies would implicitly map to $allDependencies.filter("jar") for
> backward compatibility.
> Better: the filter() argument might be a JDK 1.4 regex matching a dependency
> notation. That way we solve the architecture issue (we can match names,
> types, etc..)
> That's just one idea. We can perhaps do better? Let me know how you see it.
