How to use artifactId with different filename in dependencies

Question

Using Artifactory and Maven, how can one refer to a dependency with the correct group/artifactId/version but use a filname that differs from the artifactId-version.end style?

The problem comes with a dll that cannot be renamed, and the mandatory? Artifactory naming convention.

edit
found one possible expensive way for this specific problem where the filename cannot include the dash-sign: creating a new Artifactory repository layout for which the pro-version is needed - so unfortunately, that is not an option!

partly solution for jUnit tests
using the maven-dependency-plugin and the maven-surefire-plugins one can make jUnits work. unfortunately, it does not solve the problem that the specific sapjco3.dll cannot be found when deployed within a war to a server.

Maven does not care for filenames, it cares for their coordinates. Add your DLL correctly to your remote repo and maven will do the rest. A dependency snippet might be:

<dependency>
  <groupId>com.company</groupId>
  <artifactId>my.artifact</atifactId>
  <version>1.0</version>
  <type>dll</type>
  <classifier>win32</classifier>
</dependency>

After you have done this, use either dependency:copy-dependencies or dependency:copy to change the filename at build time.
