In my development environment i use tomcat with my exploded war in /src/main/webapp.
Within this directory apart from the contents of WEB-INF i have jsp's, htmls, gifs, jpgs. In production i use separate application and web servers. When i generate my war to export to my application server in my production environment i don't want the htmls, gifs, jpgs etc to be copied. I have tried creating a resource in the plugin properties in my pom.xml and excluding certain static files, but it has not worked. The /src/main/webapp folder is always copied entirely to my war each time that i build it. Here is the code that i have tried <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.0</version> <configuration> <webResources> <resource> <directory>src/main/webapp</directory> <excludes> <exclude>**/*.jsp</exclude> <exclude>**/*.gif</exclude> </excludes> </resource> </webResources> </configuration> </plugin> All help would be apreciated. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Separate-static-content-in-war-tf1981030.html#a5436334 Sent from the Maven - Users forum at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
