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. It would be great to improve that section and put a
direct link to documentation on the plugin homepage (I found it after quite
some digging:))

> 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.
