Hi list! I use build/outputDirectory to have compile on save work with netbeans. I also want the overlay war to exclude WEB-INF/classes. My problem is that it only works when not specifying build/outputDirectory. Apache Maven 2.2.1 (rdebian-1) Java version: 1.6.0_21
... <build> <finalName>myProject</finalName> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.1-beta-1</version> <executions> <execution> <goals> <goal>war</goal> </goals> <configuration> <packagingExcludes>WEB-INF/lib/commons-logging-*.jar</packagingExcludes> <dependentWarExcludes>WEB-INF/classes/**</dependentWarExcludes> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin> </plugins> <!--outputDirectory>target/myProject/WEB-INF/classes</outputDirectory--> </build> </project> running 'mvn -X ...' gives these relevant lines: working (without outputDirectory): [DEBUG] - WEB-INF/classes/webservice.properties wasn't copied because it has already been packaged for overlay[currentBuild]. not working (with outputDirectory): [DEBUG] + WEB-INF/classes/webservice.properties has been copied. (!and overwrites the original!) Is it a config prolem, or a bug?
