One thing to keep in mind is filtering/interpolation of ${some-key}
-expressions.
But I think it is possible to do it without temporary folder.

We have a large web project and there is large numbers of dependencies. When we
run "mvn war:war", it usually takes 40s+ to build a war (~ 600MB) on a windows
10 box and 15s + with a mac book.
By checking the war-plugin code, we know the plugin need first copy files
necessary to a folder under project dir (exploded war), then archive the entire
folder.
Copying the files to a new folder actually take a long time.
My question is:
Does it make sense to modify war-plugin to skip building the exploded war and
directly create archive with original files? I think it can save quite a bit
time.
src/main/webapp -> archive
target/classes -> archive
...
Any impacts if the exploded war is not created?
Thanks,
