(report updated)


      was (Author: cunparis):
    Shouldn't:

<exclude>*/.properties</exclude>

be:

<exclude>**/*.properties</exclude>

?

In either case, neither work for me.  My properties are always in the JAR.

> Maven Jar Plugin exclude feature seems not to work completely well.
> It actually excludes the specified files from the built jar but creates however the folders path into it.
> Here's my configuration:
> {code:xml}
> <excludes>
>    <exclude>**/*.properties</exclude>
>    <exclude>**/*.xml</exclude>
>    <exclude>**/*.xsd</exclude>
> </excludes>
> {code}
> Although all the specified files are actually excluded from the deployed
> jar, the directory paths of the excluded files are still created into
> the jar.
> I mean, if I have the following files under the resources directory:
> resources/log4j.properties
> resources/xml/file.xml
> resources/xml/schema/schema.xsd
> These files won't be included in the built jar, but I'll still have the
> following path into it:
> /xml/schema/
> Find attached a simple project test case to reproduce the problem.
> - Extract it
> - Change to the main dir
> - run: mvn compile
> - run: mvn jar:jar
