Ondrej Burkert updated MTOMCAT-246:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: sample.zip

Sample simple project.

It gets deployed correctly when the sample-env.properties is placed in the lib 
folder of a standalone Tomcat. When deployed using tomcat7-maven-plugin and :   
                         
<additionalClasspathDirs>src/main/resources</additionalClasspathDirs>

It cannot find the property file, hence deployment fails.

Though I may have misunderstood the usage - I find examples on the web page 
rather basic and lacking as they don't mention usage of webapps element and 
dependencies neither.

> We have projects developed using Spring. Every project has a set of 
> configuration files (usually just logback configuration XML and a property 
> file). They are placed on the classpath and loaded from there by Spring app 
> context.
> I don't see any way to put these on the classpath with current (we try 2.1 at 
> the moment) version of the plugin. Adding it using the 
> additionalClasspathDirs does not work as that is apparently Tomcat's not 
> application's classpath. It fails with FileNotFound exception. We place these 
> in the tomcat/lib folder for regular deployments.
> Any workaround or preferably solution for the problem would be highly 
> appreciated. There are couple unanswered questions in this direction on 
> stackoverflow as well.
