Benjamin Bentmann commented on MRESOURCES-52:
---------------------------------------------

There will not be any noticable changes for the end-user regarding plugin 
configuration. For example, I tested the patch with the same test POM, no 
changes were required.

It's all strings in the XML configuration, whether this is pushed into a File 
or a String is transparent to the user. That's similar to plugin parameters of 
type Array or Collection which - from the perspective of the POM - cannot be 
distinguished.

> Change type of plugin parameter "outputDirectory" to java.io.File

> As described by MNG-3273, using java.lang.String for path parameters is 
> discouraged as it usually leads to relative paths being resolved against the 
> current working directory instead of the project's base directory. This bug 
> manifest itselfs when a user explicitly configures the maven-resources-plugin 
> with a relative output directory and then runs the build from a different 
> working directory (for example, the base directory of an aggregator parent).
