I'm building a war and the web project has the following structure:
|-- pom.xml
|-- src
| |-- com
| | `--mycompany
| | `--securedpage
| | `-- somejavafile.java
| | `-- anotherjavafile.java
| |
| |`--log4j.properties
| |`--messages_en.properties
| `--manager.properties
|
`-- WebContent
|-- WEB-INF
| `-- web.xml
`-- jsp
`-- defError.jsp
I wish to exclude the two properties files log4j.properties and
manager.properties from my final WAR file's WEB-INF/classes directory, but
when I do the build ,these 2 properties files
keep appearing in my WAR file WEB-INF/classes directory.My pom has the
following configuration :
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<archiveClasses>false</archiveClasses>
<warSourceDirectory>WebContent/</warSourceDirectory>
<webXml>WebContent/WEB-INF/web.xml</webXml>
<warName>ssomanager</warName>
<warSourceExcludes>**/*.java</warSourceExcludes>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
<sourceDirectory>src</sourceDirectory>
<scriptSourceDirectory />
<resources>
<resource>
<directory>src</directory>
<excludes>
<exclude>**/*.java</exclude>
<exclude>log4j.properties</exclude>
<exclude>manager.properties</exclude>
</excludes>
<includes>
<include>messages_en.properties</include>
</includes>
</resource>
</resources>
</build>
Where am I going wrong?
