This doesn't have the intended effect either. In fact, it pretty much blows
away the entire classpath.
Taking a look at the source code for War sheds some light:
webInf.into('classes') {
from {
def classpath = getClasspath()
classpath ? classpath.filter {File file -> file.isDirectory()} : []
}
}
It looks like this pulls in the contents of *anything* that is a directory,
but without filtering the contents of that directory in any way. I may be
wrong, being new at Gradle and all, but it looks as if I would need to
completely override this behavior in favor of something that works at a more
granular level.
Any other thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt
