This is not going to work. There is a difference between sources and resources.
And filtering is also not what you want.
Resources are copied to target/classes and never compiled. Filtering is used to
replace ${variable} kind of things.
This is not easy to accomplish. Maybe you could first answer a question: why
are you trying to accomplish this?

Subject: how to replace a java file
I want to use filter to generate a src/main/resources/filter/hello.java
to replace the old one in src/main/java/com/my-company/hello.java
<resource> in pom.xml
<resource>
<directory>src/main/resources/filter/</directory>
<filtering>true</filtering>
<includes>
<include>hello.java</include>
</includes>
<targetPath>com/my-company/</targetPath>
</resource>
the result is:
hello.class is compiled using the old hello.java,
the new hello.java source file is in the jar file
does anyone knows how to do it?
