Thanks.Basically what I wish to do is to copy some spring xml config
files into my WEB-INF/appcontext directory, before the war file is
created.Should I put the ant task in the "process-resources" phase?
I added the following to my pom :
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>process-resources</phase>
<configuration>
<tasks>
<copy todir="WebContent/WEB-INF/appcontext">
<fileset
dir="${ant.common.eportal.services.dir}/src/spring/context"
includes="**/*.xml" />
<fileset
dir="${ant.common.eportal.messaging.dir}/src/spring/context"
includes="**/*.xml" />
<fileset
dir="${ant.common.eportal.webservices.dir}/src/spring/context"
includes="**/*.xml" />
</copy>
</tasks>
</configuration>
<goals>
<goal>run</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
and then have the resource defined af :
<resource>
<filtering>true</filtering>
<directory>../eportal-support/ant</directory>
</resource>
where my ant-property.properties file is located and the varibles
ant.common.eportal.services.dir ,
ant.common.eportal.messaging.dir ,
ant.common.eportal.webservices.dir
are defined in that property file.Running "mvn install" fails with the message :
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Error executing ant tasks
Embedded error: D:\M2-WORK\${ant.common.eportal.services.dir}\src\spring\context
not found.
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] For more information, run Maven with the -e switch
i.e ${ant.common.eportal.services.dir} is not being evaluated.How can
i get these variables to be evaluated before they start being used?
