Dennis Lundberg commented on MWAR-250:
--------------------------------------
Can you put together a small project that we can use to test this issue?
> Exclusion of files doesn't work as documented
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MWAR-250
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MWAR-250
> Project: Maven 2.x WAR Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.1.1
> Environment: maven-war-plugin 2.1.1, Maven 2.2.1, Java 1.6.0_18,
> Windows XP
> Reporter: Dirk Laube
>
> I tried to exclude files and in accordance with the doc on
> http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-war-plugin/examples/adding-filtering-webresources.html
> I used the following maven-war-configuration, yet it didn't work for me, the
> exclude definition is ignored:
> {code:xml}
> <plugin>
> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
> <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
> <version>2.1.1</version>
> <configuration>
> <webResources>
> <resource>
> <directory>src/main/webapp/</directory>
> <excludes>
> <exclude>**/*.wsil</exclude>
> <exclude>WEB-INF/web.xml</exclude>
> </excludes>
> </resource>
> </webResources>
> </configuration>
> </plugin>
> {code}
> This configuration didn't work either:
> {code:xml}
> <plugin>
> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
> <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
> <version>2.1.1</version>
> <configuration>
> <warSourceExcludes>**/*.wsil, WEB-INF/web.xml</warSourceExcludes>
> </configuration>
> </plugin>
> {code}
> Finally, with this configuration the specified files were excluded:
> {code:xml}
> <plugin>
> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
> <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
> <version>2.1.1</version>
> <configuration>
> <excludes>**/*.wsil, WEB-INF/web.xml</excludes>
> </configuration>
> </plugin>
> {code}
> That is, IMHO probably this is a bug, at least the documentation isn't in
> sync with the plugin behaviour.
