Hi Carlos, I found the cause for the problem.
The thing is that the resources plugin correctly copies stuff to the target directory. Unfortunately the first thing the flexjs compiler does is clean the output directory. In order to solve this, I would like to have the clean code separated from the compile code. Ideally we would also separate the copying of resources. An option would be to set some sort of „isAntBuild“ flag and to skip these code parts for non ant builds. In Maven there is a dedicated clean lifecycle for cleaning up things and a copy-resources phase for copying resources and I would like to utilize these. I did some minor changes to the poms of your example ... please have a look. I added the resources plugin to the example root pom and removed some duplicate dependencies in your MDLExample. Additionally I re-defined the resources directory. If you do a „mvn clean process-resoureces“ (which is one step before the compile) you can see that the resources are correctly copied. Unfortunately the first thing the compiler does, is delete things.

I miss something?
