Odd behaviour of maven resources plugin

[Ashley Williams <as...@db.com>]

Hi,

I'm trying to use the resources plugin in order to filter the out of the 
box jboss, as I wish to rename the 'all' server to a different name and 
also strip out unused parts. So naturally I've added a configuration to 
the pom.xml as follows:

<resource>
        <!-- just the jboss application without servers -->
        <directory>${basedir}/src/main/jboss-eap-4.2</directory>
        <excludes>
                <exclude>server/all/**/*</exclude>
                <exclude>jar-versions.xml</exclude>
        </excludes>
        <targetPath>template/CUSTOM_JBOSS</targetPath>
</resource>

<resource>
        <!-- use the jboss all server (without unused components) but 
rename to custom -->
        <directory>
                ${basedir}/src/main/jboss-eap-4.2/server/all
        </directory>
        <excludes>
                <exclude>**/hibernate*.jar</exclude>
                <exclude>**/jbossmq*.jar</exclude>
                <exclude>**/jboss-messaging*.jar</exclude>
                <exclude>**/jboss-remoting*.jar</exclude>
                <exclude>deploy/jms/**/*</exclude>
                <exclude>deploy-hasingleton/jms/**/*</exclude>
                <exclude>farm/**/*</exclude>
        </excludes>
        <targetPath>template/JBOSS/server/custom</targetPath>
</resource>

About 20% of the time I the resources I'm trying to filter end up in the 
target jboss directory anyway, as if the filter rules are completely 
ignored. Can anyone shed any light on this?

Thanks
