We drop our Spring XML resources into .../conf, mark them as configuration files in the RPM, and include that directory on the classpath. This allows us to edit those configuration files and the RPM system will handle the files differently on upgrade or uninstall if they've been modified.
We could conceivably include the resources in both places, but we chose not to so we wouldn't risk confusions over classpath order and would have (slightly) smaller JAR files. -- View this message in context: http://gradle.1045684.n5.nabble.com/How-to-exclude-some-classes-from-jar-tp3315811p4647294.html Sent from the gradle-user mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from this list, please visit: http://xircles.codehaus.org/manage_email
