Hi Felipe and Vincent

I'm still trying to understand CACTUS-132. I can see the code that was added
to copy some resources files in maven.build.dest but I don't understand how
it finds its way in the cactifywar task.



I'm not sure if I reviewed the code carefully, I think I just added the test cases (and assumed the code was ok, based in your comment - http://nagoya.apache.org/jira/browse/CACTUS-132#action_36900).


I hope too

I was expecting to see some new <classes> element in the <cactifywar> but
it's not there it seems.



Yes, that would be a more elegant solution. In fact, I mentioned that too, but I wasn't sure if it would work (as I'm not that familiar with the ant tasks). From http://nagoya.apache.org/jira/browse/CACTUS-132#action_54564:

] PS: another improvement that could be made would be not relying on maven.build.dest and including the ] resources directly from inside the <cactifywar> tag. But I'm not sure if that would work (besides I haven't the ] spare cycles to check it right now :-)



I am not familiar with ant task dev too. And having the feature is important for my web's jar test. The modification in the first patch wasn't ennormous so I understand that the modification in it could be done later...

Also the cactifywar task extends the WAR task so we can use the <classes>
element to put any file in the WEB-INF/classes directory.



Ok, makes sense. Hopefully we can change the implementation and the final result will be the same (i.e., the tasks will pass!).


Thanks for this explaination Vincent so it could be easier than Felipe thinks first time !




Have I got something wrong? :-)


I think you got it right and we got it wrong :-( Sorry...


I agree with you too. And as I know in the future evolution of maven it is better too have java things than jelly one ? I help is need I maybe can work on an other patch (it could be an way to learn more on how dev ant task ;-) ).

Nicolas,
