[jira] Commented: (MRESOURCES-21) when pom specifies multiple resource directories, the directories should be copied in the order they are in the pom

Olivier Lamy commented on MRESOURCES-21:
----------------------------------------

If your resources have filtering to true : last one always wins.
If not : there is a test on file.lastModified (to.lastModified() < from.lastModified()) .

IMHO we should probably add a new flag "overwrite" (Overwrite existing files even if the destination files are newer.) in the mojo

> It should be possible to control the order in which resource directories are copied to target/classes, since multiple resource dirs could potentially contain files with the same names. The intutive thing would be to copy the resource directories in the order they are specified in the POM (i.e. last one wins). However, it appears the resources are currently copied in reverse order (i.e. first one wins).
