Jar file naming conventions

Question

Are there any industry standard conventions for naming jar files?

Answer 1

I have been using

Informative-name-M.m.b.jar

Where:

M = major version number (changed when backward compatibility is not necessarily maintained)

m = minor version number (feature additions etc)

b = build number (for releases containing bug fixes)

Answer 2

This is on the first page of google results
