Include resources from other module in .jar

[Aiko85]

Hi!

Is it possible to directly include in a jar (lets call it A.jar)
class/resource files from other module (lets call it B.jar). ? What I have
is 5 jars/modules that need to have exactly the same property/xml files
inside them, so I would like to keep the resources in a separate module, in
one place, and just include them in 5 jars.

Thanks for any help,
Anne

PS. Please don't be cryptic, I'm very new to maven ;)

Thanks Stefan :-)

So far I've added the build part to each of the including jar's poms and
it works. Is it possible to configure it so the plugin configuration is in
one place ? Didn't work out when i placed it in root pom.

 Hi,
 
 one option is to extract the B jar using the dependency plugin:
build
  plugins
plugin
  artifactIdmaven-dependency-plugin/artifactId
  version2.1-SNAPSHOT/version
  executions
execution
  idexpand common JSP fragments/id
  goals
goalunpack-dependencies/goal
  /goals
  phasegenerate-resources/phase
  configuration
includeGroupIdsyour.group.id/includeGroupIds
includeArtifactIdsyourArtifactId/includeArtifactIds
excludeTransitivetrue/excludeTransitive
includes**/*.xml/includes
  
 outputDirectory${project.build.directory}/generated-resources/outputDirectory
  /configuration
/execution
  /executions
/plugin
 
 adapt this a bit, add a dependency to the artifact 
 your.group.id:yourArtifactId (where your shared resources are placed in 
 src/main/resources) and off you go.
 
 HTH,
