Re: Building a jar of a some of a webapp's classes [solved]

[Matt Raible <ma...@raibledesigns.com>]

I got what I wanted by doing the following:

1.  In project.properties, I have:
maven.war.classes.excludes=**/navigator/displayer/*
maven.war.classes.includes=**/navigator/example/*
maven.jar.excludes=**/example/*

2.  In maven.xml I added:

     <!-- create jar file for struts-menu and include it in WEB-INF/lib 
-->
     <postGoal name="war:webapp">
         <attainGoal name="jar"/>
         <copy file="${maven.build.dir}/${maven.final.name}.jar"
             todir="${maven.build.dir}/${pom.artifactId}/WEB-INF/lib"/>
     </postGoal>

This accomplished what I was looking for.

Thanks,

Matt
