Thanks for the reply.

If my current project A has a dependency on B, whose WEB-INF/classes does the following sentence refer to?

-------------------

warpathExcludes    String    The filter that determines the resources, from
the "dependent" war's WEB-INF/classes directory, to exclude from the
classpath. Note that excludes takes priority over includes. Th default is
the empty string, i.e. exclude nothing.

---------------------

My original understanding was that it would exclude those files under B (the depended)'s WEB-INF/classes from being included in A(the dependent)'s classpath. For example,

Project A (the dependent war)
      WEB-INF/classes/jdbc.properties

Project B (the depended war)
      WEB-INF/classes/jdbc.properties

<configuration>
                   <warpathExcludes>
                       jdbc.properties
                   </warpathExcludes>
</configuration>

which jdbc.properties will be excluded and which one will be included? If the answer is B, then I still think the original wording is a little bit confusing.

We use dependent because it seems to work best when describing a
dependency - which is what the war is in your pom.xml.

Hi,

 When I read the following documentation at the following URL:

 http://static.appfuse.org/maven-warpath-plugin/add-classes-mojo.html

 I am confused by the word "dependent" in the following context:
 -----------------------------------
 Optional Parameters

 warpathExcludes    String    The filter that determines the resources, from
the "dependent" war's WEB-INF/classes directory, to exclude from the
classpath. Note that excludes takes priority over includes. Th default is
the empty string, i.e. exclude nothing.

 warpathIncludes    String    The filter that determines the resources, from
the "dependent" war's WEB-INF/classes directory, to include on the
classpath. Default is "**".
 -----------------------------------

 To my understanding, the "dependent" war should be phrased as "depended"
war. Can someone please clarify this a little bit? I am happy to learn if it
is due to my poor English.

 Thanks,

 Chad
