wei cai updated MWAR-445:
-------------------------
Description:
Currently to build a war archive, maven-war-plugin need:
* source paths (libraries, src/main/webapp...) -> exploded war -> build archive
Many files need to be copied to exploded war directory before creating war
archive.
To speed up the maven-war-plugin, I would like to propose below solution:
* source paths (libraries, src/main/webapp...) -> build archive
Here when "-Dmaven.war.exploded.skip=true" is passed, the maven-war-plugin then
build the archive directly based on all source paths, in this way, massive file
copying can be avoided.
maven.war.exploded.skip is by default set as false as there might be a few
cases user want an exploded war, for example:
* Using tomcat7-maven-plugin to start exploded webapp
I created the PR: [https://github.com/apache/maven-war-plugin/pull/21] for
initial discussion.
Please help review and advise:
* Does it make sense to skip the creation of exploded war? Any features will
break because of this?
* Regarding the ITs, shall I separate the tests into 2 scenarios?
** ITs for original behavior.
** ITs for building war archive without creating exploded war.
