Paul Benedict commented on MWAR-60:
-----------------------------------
Are we sure this is fixed? I cannot get the WEB-INF directory in
src/main/webapp to be excluded.
> Source Excludes are being applied to WAR file
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MWAR-60
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MWAR-60
> Project: Maven 2.x War Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.0.2
> Environment: WinXP, jdk1.5.0_07, mvn 2.0.4
> Reporter: Chuck Deal
> Assignee: Stephane Nicoll
> Fix For: 2.1-alpha-2
>
>
> My scenario:
> I use Eclipse 3.1.1 to develop the web app. I run Tomcat 5.5.17 with it's
> docbase pointed at the source tree (/src/main/webapp). As a result, I have
> files that are required by Tomcat to run, but not to be included in the WAR.
> Specifically, I have a WEB-INF folder with a classes directory that includes
> classes that will actually be included in the WAR as a JAR (as well as a few
> other things).
> As you can see in the following plugin snippet, I specifically exclude the
> WEB-INF folder from the source tree because all of its contents will be
> gathered by the various stages of the build process (process-resources, etc)
> and included in the WAR when it is "exploded"
> I had been using the following plugin snippet for generating my War (war
> plugin 2.0)
> <plugin>
> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
> <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
> <version>2.0</version>
> <configuration>
> <webXml>target/jspweb.xml</webXml>
> <warName>aims</warName>
> <excludes>**/*.jsp*, **/JasperReports/*.*, **/WEB-INF/**/*.*</excludes>
> </configuration>
> </plugin>
> If you change the version from 2.0 to 2.0.1, you will no longer generate the
> same WAR file! Instead, v2.0.1 uses the source excludes and applies them to
> the WAR construction as well. This means that the exploded WEB-INF (the
> correct one) is also removed from the WAR file.
> I don't think that the source excludes should be applied to the WAR
> construction, only to the stage where the source files are "exploded" (as in
> v2.0)
