RE: Putting resources to somewhere else

In order to stop Maven from putting your resources into your jar you
need to override the default targetpath directory for the resources.
This is done in the POM in the resources section. If you take a look
at what I have below...this is telling maven to output any files found
in the src/main/resources to target/resources. This way...the maven pkg
cmd won't add them to your jar.  As you can see I also have maven setup
to exclude certain sub folders in there because I customize maven to
only filter files found in the filtered folder and only put files found
in the packaged folder into the jar. I then use assemblies as Wendy
described to create the structure similar to what you listed below. If
you want more details on how I set all this up you can email me
directly.

Ie. resources
resource
targetPath../resources/targetPath
filteringfalse/filtering
directorysrc/main/resources/directory
excludes
excludefiltered/**/exclude
excludepackaged/**/exclude
excludedir.info/exclude
/excludes
/resource
resource

 I would like maven to put my resources not into the jar file, but next
 to classes in a resources directory, so my structure would be:

 Component +
   - lib +
 - mycomponent.jar
   - resources +
   - myresource.xml

 Etc.

 Could anybody help how to tell the resource processor plugin where to
 put it? I could tell only relative path within target/classes, but not
 relative to output directory.

If you want to build something that contains jars and other files,
look at the assembly plugin:

http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/
(The current version is actually 2.1, not 2.2 as it says.)

Otherwise, whatever you put in src/main/resources will be mirrored in
the jar.  So if you want something at the top level of the jar, put
it directly in src/main/resources.  Then create the desired directory
structure from there.  It will overlay (or sit beside) the classes
compiled from code in src/main/java.  You can use resources in the
pom to identify things to copy into the jar.

If you prefer to keep your non-Java resources under src/main/java,
then use resources to pick them up.

This pom has an example:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/struts/struts1/trunk/core/pom.xml

You can also do it by adding a resource for src/main/java and
excluding **/*.java to get everything but the Java sources.  (That
might pick up Javadoc package summaries, though.)

The only thing to keep in mind is that once you specify any
resources, you're responsible for specifying *all* of them.  (For
example, the 'default' of src/main/resources has to be stated
explicitly in addition to anything under src/main/java.)
