If you want them out of the jar just put them out of the resources folder into e.g. src/main/assets or whatever..

Then you can bundle the jar and those together later.

However I fail to understand why you want to do that the first place..

Hello,

I have a Maven project with resource files in src/main/resources. Currently
the jar file generated includes the resources in the jar but I'd like them
outside of the jar file ideally in the same directory as the jar file so I
added the<resources>  section to my pom.xml as follows:

   <build>
       <plugins>
           <plugin>
               <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
               <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
               <version>2.4</version>
               <configuration>
                   <archive>
                       <manifest>
                           <addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
                           <mainClass>it.myapp</mainClass>
                       </manifest>
                       <manifestEntries>
                           <Class-Path>.</Class-Path>
                       </manifestEntries>
                   </archive>
               </configuration>
           </plugin>
       </plugins>
       <resources>
           <resource>
               <directory>src/main/resources</directory>
               <targetPath>..</targetPath>
           </resource>
       </resources>
   </build>
The problem is when I attempt to clean and build, my JUnit tests fail due
to an exception:

Caused by: java.util.MissingResourceException: Can't find bundle for base
name MessageResourceBundle, locale en_US
  at
java.util.ResourceBundle.throwMissingResourceException(ResourceBundle.java:1499)
  at java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundleImpl(ResourceBundle.java:1322)
  at java.util.ResourceBundle.getBundle(ResourceBundle.java:724)
If I remove the<resources>  section, the clean and build is successful but
my resources files are inside the jar. I want them on the outside.
I verified the above in a separate test project without a message resource
bundle so the problem is with the bundle but why? How do I fix this?
