Sure, because Maven treats them as web resources that have to be packaged into your WAR file... > I've tried: > 1) using the clean plug-in but that means when I switch back over to > eclipse > I have to do a full clean on that project > 2) using an exclude filter for the war plug-in, but have not had any luck > with that. > > Does anyone have a working solution to this? Not a solution, but some questions: 1) Why don't you just use the standard Maven directory for the compiled classes? This shouldn't prevent you from hot deploying changes... 2) Have you configured your desired output directory in your pom.xml so that Maven compiles your classes to the same directory? <build> ... <outputDirectory>...</outputDirectory> <testOutputDirectory>...</testOutputDirectory> </build> 3) If you really need to compile to WEB-INF/classes, have you tried configuring the Maven WAR plugin to exclude that directory when packaging web resources?
