Maven assembly configuration

Use default descriptor and attached to verify phase:

<plugins>
   <plugin>
    <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>2.2-beta-5</version>
    <executions>
     <execution>
      <phase>verify</phase>
      <goals>
       <goal>attached</goal>
      </goals>
      <configuration>
       <finalName>procdate</finalName>
       <appendAssemblyId>false</appendAssemblyId>
       <descriptorRefs>
        <descriptorRef>jar-with-dependencies</descriptorRef>
       </descriptorRefs>
      </configuration>
     </execution>
    </executions>
   </plugin>
  </plugins>

Apply your own configuration file:

<plugins>
   <plugin>
    <artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>2.2-beta-5</version>
    <executions>
     <execution>
      <phase>verify</phase>
      <goals>
       <goal>attached</goal>
      </goals>
      <configuration>
       <finalName>${project.artifactId}</finalName>
       <appendAssemblyId>false</appendAssemblyId>
       <descriptors>
        <descriptor>src/main/assembly/assembly.xml</descriptor>
       </descriptors>
      </configuration>
     </execution>
    </executions>
   </plugin>
