I am fairly new to Maven, and after a few days of playing around with it and reading two pretty lengthy PDF's, I have managed to get it all to work and create a nice jar file for my application, with all its dependencies.
However, I am having severe problems with adding resources, such that these are packaged in the jar. For example, I have a gui/images folder that I'd like included, so Java can find some image files when it looks in org.git.systems.gui.images (that would be the actual path in the code). I guess I'm just confused as to how to get Maven to include these sources (I also don't really understand what is meant by not filtering resources...). I thought that creating a new folder /src/main/resources was enough, and that putting my resources there would suffice, but this does not seem to be the case. I have tried placing the resources there, packaging the file, and when I depackage the archive, my resources are nowhere to be found. Thanks so much in advance, I can't wait to get this all working!
