> Since the war plugin does not use the project.xml file for any of its
> resources, there is not an easy way to filter files. If you are building an
> artifact that uses maven:copy-resources in one of its goals, filtering is
> simple. Just set filtering to true on the build resource in the POM, and add
> a simple preGoal which sets your filters maven.xml This is a lot more
> difficult when building a war because the files are copied and built into the
> war in the same goal.
> There are some workarounds to this. You can copy the source directory for
> your webapp to a temporary directory under target and have that be
> maven.war.src. That requires a lot of verbose code in maven.xml for each
> webapp. A filtering attribute could be added to the ant:copy command that
> copies the maven.war.src directory, but then filters cannot be easily defined
> in the POM.
