Hi, thanks, i was able to use it as a dependency, it was easy, but the problem with the directory structure remains.. when my file is src/main/config/myxml.xml and i set the output directory to be conf the result is conf/src/main/config/myxml.xml while i want it to just be conf/myxml.xml
i guess that i'm doing something wrong here.. thanks. On Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 1:23 PM, Anders Hammar <and...@hammar.net> wrote: > OK, move the config file to a separate project then.
