Description

WAR file naming inconsistency. Its been reported before. We need versioned file consistency and JAR/EAR are there now, but WAR is not. It needs to include the version and, to appease those people who are not willing to deploy their WAR by setting the context path in their servlet engine, allow people to specify the filename.

The standard ought to be consistency in naming schemes. People have submitted patches for this also.

No patches added since Michal Maczka has said several times on the mailing list that he has enabled this in the past and backed it out due to complaints by others. The consensus now seems to be that we should have consistency in naming hence I am assuming that Michal or some other developer still has the necessary changes to put this back in.

I believe it is possible to override the default name by setting the maven.war.final.name property in project.properties.
