Olivier Lamy commented on MNG-1833: ----------------------------------- Look at MNG-1655. > war:clean goal > -------------- > > Key: MNG-1833 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1833 > Project: Maven 2 > Type: New Feature > Components: maven-war-plugin > Reporter: Jochen Wiedmann > > > The war:explode goal deploys an application to a webapp directory. However, > it only overrides existing files and doesn't remove files. I suggest to add a > new goal mvn:clean, which cleans the webapp directory. > Things to discuss: > - Should the webapp directory be removed or only the webapp directories > contents. > IMO the former. Is a configurable option required? > - Is it possible to bind this to the maven clean plugin somehow? For example, > if > the maven clean plugin had a new goal clean:appclean, or something like > that, > then one might make sure, that clean:appclean invokes war:clean. How could > that be done? > I am ready to provide a patch, if someone signals, that the patch might be > accepted > and signals the way in which the above questions should be resolved. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
