Michal Domagala commented on MWAR-257: -------------------------------------- Global level dependentWarExcludes/Includes are very useful and should be restored. That will be a long story... Global exclusion of {{WEB-INB/lib/*.jar}} is simple solution to solve problem [MWAR-33| https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MWAR-33] (jars with differents versions can be in WEB-INF/lib with war as dependencies) Unfortunately, commit https://fisheye6.atlassian.com/changelog/maven?cs=606628 for https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MWAR-118 marked {{dependentWarExcludes}} deprecated. I read issue description and I don't know why it is deprecated. I expected it was mistake or under analyzed change. > Remove deprecation of dependentWarExcludes, since there is no alternative on > global level > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MWAR-257 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MWAR-257 > Project: Maven WAR Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Components: overlay > Affects Versions: 2.1.1 > Reporter: dool > > Hello, > DependentWarExcludes is marked as deprecated. Documentation says to use > <overlay>/<excludes> instead. > But it seems to me that it is not possible to get the same behaviour with > <overlay>/<excludes> as in this case we have to provide groupIds and > artifactIds. > Maybe this behaviour could be reproduced when setting both groupId and > artifactId to * as below : > <overlays> > <overlay> > <excludes> > <groupId>*</groupId> > <artifactId>*</artifactId> > <exclude>**/*</exclude> > </excludes> > > </overlay> > </overlays> > By the way, I found this, by looking for a way to disable overlay. The > workaround I thought was configuring your plugin to exclude every files when > overlaying. > I think it would be nice to have a configuration parameter for that. > Many thanks, > Dool -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
