On page 45 of the new maven book, it states: "The original contents of src/main/resources can be found starting at the base of the JAR and the application.properties file is there in the META-INF directory. You will also notice some other files there like META-INF/MANIFEST.MF, as well as a pom.xml and pom.properties file. These come standard with the creation of a JAR in Maven. You can create your own manifest if you choose, but Maven will generate one by default if you don't."
I'm in a situation where I need to specify entries in the Class-Path attribute in MANIFEST.MF. Putting the manifest file in "src/main/resources/META-INF/" results in a manifest being generated by maven, and the one in resources being stored under WEB-INF/classes/META-INF. Did I misunderstand this portion of the book? Ideally, I would be able to accomplish what I'm after by specifying the "addClasspath" attribute for the WAR archiver, but doing this includes all jars with the default scope in the classpath which is not what I'm after. Default scope items should be bundled inside the WEB-INF/lib folder of the war as normal, but there are a couple that are provided inside the application EAR and these are what I'd like to add to the manifest classpath.
