Nevermind about the overlays; I found a docs page on that. -----Original Message----- From: Allen, Daniel Sent: Monday, February 04, 2008 11:08 AM To: Maven Users List Subject: RE: [m2] Filtering web.xml?
Wayne: I thought having <packaging>war</packaging> in your pom.xml was a shortcut to calling war:war, with Maven filling in the requried parameters. If I'm wrong about that, what's the difference? Just more elaborate customizability with war:war? Also, the plugin documentation is a little sparse, so I'm not sure which of these parameters will help me. I see that you can specify the location of webXML, and I see that there's a filters parameter, but Maven already knows where web.xml is, and puts it in the right spot by default; it only gets confused and misplaces the file when I try to use filters. Also, the documentation for Fitlers only says it's used in "interpolation of the pom.xml," whereas I need to filter web.xml. Thanks, ~Dan Allen PS: What's an "overlay?" That sounds potentially useful, but the parameter Overlays is just explained as "specifies overlays." -----Original Message----- From: Wayne Fay [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, February 01, 2008 6:36 PM To: Maven Users List Subject: Re: [m2] Filtering web.xml? The war plugin has a configuration you can use for this <webXml>: http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-war-plugin/war-mojo.html That should do it...
