maven-antrun-plugin <copy> tasks are the conventional means for moving files around, mostly because Maven 2 does not provide a generalized facility for doing so, except for when the destination is under target/classes/ or target/test-classes/; in those cases, maven-resources-plugin handles the job. So to answer your question, yes, it is acceptable to use Ant facilities where Maven is lacking. This particular gap will hopefully be filled by native Maven functionality at some point in the not-too-distant future, but it's probably hard for people to be motivated to fix this problem, because Ant's copy task is so flexible, well-known, thoroughly tested, tight syntactically, etc. Steve --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
