how to exclude txt file from source?

Hi,

How can I exclude a txt file lying in java source folder while packaging
jar file. The same thing can be done using filtering to exclude a file
from resources folder but I could not find any documentation on
excluding a file from source folder.

Regards

Kapil

Good day to you, Kapil,

What manoj is saying is true. If your .txt files under src/main/java are
copied, that means, somewhere in your pom, you included them as your
resource. If so, you can try to remove the <include> tag for your *.txt, or
if you can't (since you specified something else like src/main/java/*.*),
you can add an <exclude> tag.

[1] is an unfinished (and unreleased) documentation of the
maven-resources-plugin. You can try and take  a look at it as it explains
how to include and exclude resources. If I'm not mistaken, maven-jar-plugin
allows maven-resources-plugin to handle the copyng and filtering of the
resources. If you have any comments about it, kindly let us know so that we
can improve it. 

Thanks,
Franz
