You could try out the remote-resources plugin, or simply make a zip with assembly:single (in a pom project) and then use dependency:unpack to extract the resources where you want them in the war.

However, I could not find any plugin that can also merge localized resource files. Since it's not possible to define multiple resource bundles in web.xml, I think there is need to be able to merge localized resource bundles at the time ov overlaying wars. Has any one had that issue and possible solution? This is the scenario CommonWar\WEB-INF\ CommonResources_en.properties CommonWar\WEB-INF\ CommonResources_ja.properties AppWar\WEB-INF\AppWarResources_en.properties AppWar \WEB-INF\AppWarResources_ja.properties During build time, I am overlaying AppWar with CommonWar. I want Target/appwar-1.0-snapshot/WEB-INF/classes AppWarResources_en.properties to be (AppWar\WEB-INF\AppWarResources_en.properties + CommonWar\WEB-INF\ CommonResources_en.properties) Target/appwar-1.0-snapshot/WEB-INF/classes AppWarResources_ja.properties to be (AppWar\WEB-INF\AppWarResources_ja.properties + CommonWar\WEB-INF\ CommonResources_ja.properties) Thanks Leonard --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
