Description

If you have Eclipse running and do a Maven install, the VM can crash if Eclipse tries to read a JAR file while maven install writes it (see http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=7074879).

Please create JARs with a temporary name and then rename them after the copy operation has finished. Rename is an atomic operation on all file systems and prevents the issue.
