Hi Geoffrey,
it's not clear at all.
Can you please explicitly give us the difference between src/main/resources
and src/main/config ?
I guess src/main/resources goes to target package (jar, war, ...). And from
my understanding, src/main/config is not part of the classpath and is used
only for build (configuration files used to build, ...).
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Jean-Louis

Hi,
Thanks for the answer. It's a bit more clear now.
May be, it would be nice to update online documentation
http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-standard-directory-layout.html
I googled a lot to get such information without any success even if i found
this question a lot of times.

RE: Porpuse of src/main/config
Posted by Chris Helck <Ch...@us.icap.com>.
Here's my understanding...
In maven1, files in 'config' were packaged into the jar file. At some
point it was decided that 'resources' was a better name than 'config',
so now 'config' is just another directory that Maven doesn't do anything
with.
In general Maven doesn't know how you're going to deploy your package,
so it doesn't know what to do with directories like: config, etc, bin,
and so on. So you need to figure this out and come up with your own
convention. Plugin's like assemble (assembly?) can help a lot. I often
use it to create a tar ball that unpacks into a directory something
like:
app/
bin # all files have execute
etc # User configurable files
jars # all dependencies
logs # where app writes logs.
Basically my bin and etc directories under src/main get copied into the
tar ball.
Hope this helps.
