Dan Allen commented on MRESOURCES-24: ------------------------------------- Let's see, how hard do you think it is to exclude one resource file when using a different profile? How much time do you have? You better have a couple of weeks. Please, for the sake of every tortured maven user, let there be some way to say "I don't want this file on the classpath when I package." Need an example? src/main/resources/META-INF/jboss-beans.xml is the configuration file for the jboss microcontainer. It must be on the classpath when deploying to any environment except JBoss. So in the jboss profile, I need to exclude it from the classpath when I build the war. However, the warSourceExclude only handles files in src/main/webapp, but the file I need to exclude is in src/main/resources. Maven2 just says, "sorry, that is too hard for me to do." > Force overwrite resources defined in profiles > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: MRESOURCES-24 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRESOURCES-24 > Project: Maven 2.x Resources Plugin > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 2.2 > Reporter: Kees de Kooter > > I am using profiles to package for different environments.
