Benjamin Bentmann commented on MJAR-101:
----------------------------------------
Please note that directories are not files. Your exclusions only match files,
not their directories. So why should the plugin exclude those directories if it
was not told to do so? Just because the directories are empty? Others might
want to have those empty directories.
If you want to exclude entire directories, simply tell the plugin:
{code:xml}
<excludes>
<exclude>**/*.properties</exclude>
<exclude>xml/**</exclude>
</excludes>
{code}
will exclude the directory "xml" and all files underneath it.
> excluding files from jar doesn't work completely well

> Key: MJAR-101
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MJAR-101
> Project: Maven 2.x Jar Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.2
> Environment: Windows XP, JDK 1.5
> Reporter: Patrizio Munzi
> Attachments: mavenjarplugin.bug.tar.gz

>
> Maven Jar Plugin exclude feature seems not to work completely well.
> It actually excludes the specified files from the built jar but creates
> however the folders path into it.
> Here's my configuration:
> {code:xml}
> <excludes>
> <exclude>**/*.properties</exclude>
> <exclude>**/*.xml</exclude>
> <exclude>**/*.xsd</exclude>
> </excludes>
> {code}
> Although all the specified files are actually excluded from the deployed
> jar, the directory paths of the excluded files are still created into
> the jar.
> I mean, if I have the following files under the resources directory:
> resources/log4j.properties
> resources/xml/file.xml
> resources/xml/schema/schema.xsd
> These files won't be included in the built jar, but I'll still have the
> following path into it:
> /xml/schema/
> Find attached a simple project test case to reproduce the problem.
> - Extract it
> - Change to the main dir
> - run: mvn compile
> - run: mvn jar:jar
