Carsten Rohde commented on MRESOURCES-281:
------------------------------------------

Just in case anyone else has the same problem. We finally ended up with the 
following:
 * create a folder e.g. src/main/filtered-resources-<encoding>
 * use resources:copy-resources with the required encoding encoding to copy 
into the output directory
 * (Eclipse) use build-helper:add-resource or a resource element to add the 
folder as a project resource folder and then exclude everything inside, thus 
tricking eclipse into rendering the folder as a first-clas resource-folder
 * (Eclipse) ensure that resources:copy-resources is bound by m2e

 

> allow different encodings for files inside the same resource-directory

>             Project: Maven Resources Plugin
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: filtering
>    Affects Versions: 3.2.0
>            Reporter: Carsten Rohde
>            Priority: Major
>              Labels: encoding, feature, newbie
>
> Currently each resource-directory has a single encoding, with the recent 
> exception of properties (MRESOURCES-171).
> If you need to filter differently encoded files, this can become quite a 
> hazzle: The only way (at least that I'm aware of) is to have different 
> modules or non-resource directories as the source for copy-resources. Apart 
> from bloating the pom, it also forces you to have related files at different 
> locations if they are encoded differently.
>  
> What I'm suggesting is to generalize what has been done for properties by 
> allowing to override the <encoding> for specific files/patterns.
> Ideally this would be part of the resource-declaration but being able to 
> configure the resources plugin accordingly would already help a lot:
> {code:java}
> <configuration>
>    <encodingOverrides>
>        <encodingOverride>
>           <encoding>UTF-16</encoding>
>           <includes>**/*.myfile</includes>
>        </encodingOverride>
>        <encodingOverride>
>            <encoding>iso-latin-1</encoding>
>            <includes>**/*.other</includes>
>        </encodingOverride>
>    </encodingOverrides>
> </configuration>
> What do you think?{code}
