== Conventions (deprecated)

The Base Plugin also adds conventions related to the creation of archives, such as ZIPs, TARs and JARs.

                executer.expectDocumentedDeprecationWarning(
                    "The BasePluginExtension.archivesBaseName property has been deprecated. " +
                        "This is scheduled to be removed in Gradle 9.0. " +
                        "Please use the archivesName property instead. " +

            executer.expectDocumentedDeprecationWarning(

                    "This is scheduled to be removed in Gradle 9.0. " +
                    "Please use the archivesName property instead. " +

Many builds will function automatically as an included build, without declared substitutions.
Here are some common cases where declared substitutions are required:

* When the `archivesBaseName` property is used to set the name of the published artifact.
* When a configuration other than `default` is published.
* When the `MavenPom.addFilter()` is used to publish artifacts that don't match the project name.

----

You can also override the default `archiveBaseName` value for _all_ the archive tasks in your build by using the _project_ property `archivesBaseName`, as demonstrated by the following example:

====
include::sample[dir="snippets/files/archivesChangedBaseName/kotlin",files="build.gradle.kts[]"]

The old convention object defines the `distsDirName`, `libsDirName` and `archivesBaseName` properties with simple getter and setter methods.
Those methods are available in the extension only to maintain backwards compatibility.
Build scripts should solely use the properties of type `Property`:
