Match syntax?
Hello. Quite a few things in Maven take patterns as input. One example would be the Assembly plugin, which accepts strings of the form *.java, etc, in its configuration when referring to files to include/exclude. Is there a description anywhere of the syntax of these match patterns? Are they just standard Java regexes? - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
Re: Match syntax?
These patterns were introduced with Ant. http://ant.apache.org/manual/dirtasks.html#patterns is probably the best page describing the usage.
