Dear list, I am currently using the Maven Archetype plugin to generate an archetype from an existing project.
When I run archetype:create-from-project, I get a couple of warnings: [INFO] --- maven-resources-plugin:2.6:resources (default-resources) @ maven-archetype-base-archetype --- [WARNING] Using platform encoding (Cp1252 actually) to copy filtered resources, i.e. build is platform dependent! [INFO] Copying 10 resources [INFO] [INFO] --- maven-resources-plugin:2.6:testResources (default-testResources) @ maven-archetype-base-archetype --- [WARNING] Using platform encoding (Cp1252 actually) to copy filtered resources, i.e. build is platform dependent! [INFO] Copying 2 resources I have set these properties in the pom of the project I am using to generate the archetype: <encoding>UTF-8</encoding> <project.build.sourceEncoding>${encoding}</project.build.sourceEncoding> <project.reporting.outputEncoding>${encoding}</project.reporting.outputEncoding> <project.resources.sourceEncoding>${encoding}</project.resources.sourceEncoding> <archetype.encoding>${encoding}</archetype.encoding> You can see the details in my stackoverflow question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24144073/why-does-maven-warns-me-about-encoding The warnings do not show up when running goals from other plugins. Any ideas about a possible solution? Thanks. Regards, Marco Ferrari Email: ferrari.ma...@gmail.com Website: http://www.ferrarimarco.info
