-----------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Bug
thanks for your insight, this is not-a-bug then i guess.
> outputDirectory is marked as mandatory whereas it is not really mandatory
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: MRESOURCES-158
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRESOURCES-158
> Project: Maven 2.x Resources Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.5
> Reporter: Jorg Heymans
>
> in the documentation and plugin descriptor the outputDirectory config element
> is marked as mandatory. But since there is a default value of
> ${project.build.outputDirectory} this element is not really mandatory. Other
> configuration elements with the same default value semantics are not marked
> as mandatory so i think for outputDirectory the same semantics should be
> applied.
> this is especially troublesome for ideas that try to assist in maven
> configuration and rely on the plugin descriptor to figure out if elements are
> mandatory or not. See http://youtrack.jetbrains.net/issue/IDEA-80626
