Thanks very much, I was worried there for a while =)

Ludwig,

I think I misunderstood what you were asking in the original email. Let 
me try again...

If I understand correctly, you want to keep the 'external' resource 
directory name in the root of the war instead of copying it's contents 
to the root of the war. This can be accomplished by adding a 
 element to the resource definition. My example below 
assumes you are renaming the resource2 directory to myTarget in the war.

In your case, with a webResource definition like:


   
 
   resource2
   myTarget
 
   


Applied to a project layout like:

pom.xml
resource2/external-resource.jpg
resource2/image2/external-resource2.jpg
src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml
...

Would produce a war layout like:

myTarget/external-resource.jpg
myTarget/image2/external-resource2.jpg
WEB-INF/web.xml

Hopefully this is the answer you're looking for.

I don't really understand why the structure needs to be different.

Hi Ludwig,

I would recommend putting those directories and files in the 
src/main/webapp directory. The maven war plugin puts everything under 
src/main/webapp into the base of the war.


In your case:

src/main/webapp/external-resource.jpg
src/main/webapp/image2/external-resource2.jpg

would give you the war layout:

./external-resource.jpg
./image2/external-resource2.jpg

Hope this helps,

I.e having all the extra resources in the resource2-folder, and that

Hi Ludwig,

I would recommend putting those directories and files in the

src/main/webapp into the base of the war.

In your case:
