using resources from a jar file

[Márcio Moraes <mm...@gmail.com>]

Hi everyone,

I'd like to know if there is some way to extract a resource from a jar file
...

For example:

I have a jar file with some XMLs files inside it.

When my app is packaged i wanna to extract the XMLs files from the
dependency (jar file) to target/classes

I wrote a plugin to do it for me, but if there is a native way to do it will
be better.

Regards,

Márcio Moraes.

Check dependency:unpack.

Hello,
If you extract your XML files into target/classes, this may mean that
you want to load them through your classpath loading mechanism. You
could use the jars as is in your final assembly/application,adding
them to your loaded classpath. That could simplify your pom.

But there may be other reasons I am not aware of :)
