Effect of skipSource?
I'm a complete newbie with maven, so could be completely off base,
but my problem is the following. We have a .war file that people have
been building with eclipse, and I'm trying to pacakge the same thing
using just maven. The .war created this way doesn't work however,
and the only difference I see in comparing the contents of the two
archives is that the maven one is missing all the .java files.
In looking at docs, I get the feeling that the skipSource flag might
somehow be related, but should default to on anyway. Can someone
point me in the right direction?

Are there other options like skipSource?

Thanks, while that answers the question in my original, poorly-worded,
subject, it doesn't address the problem I'm really having.
Trying again, is there something similar to skipSource by a different
name that controls .java files in wars?

Maven is not just a build tool, it is also a collection of best
practices. One of those best practices is that Java code should be in
Jar projects, and then War projects should depend on one or more Jar
projects to pull in (compiled) Java code to use in your Webapp. You
can see this for yourself if you build a new project using the j2ee
archetype.
So the "right" approach would be to move your Java code to a Jar
project and then maybe try building again, and specifying the
-DskipSource=false at that point.
Alternatively, you should be able to configure a <resource> in the War
project that includes src/main/java, and the java files should land in
your War file. Not sure why you'd want this unless you're working on a
GWT project, though. And in that case, you might want to have a look
at the gwt-maven-plugin.

Yes, that appears to be what happens here... but -DskipSource=false
doesn't make any difference. Is there some other option to control this?

Not including .java files in wars is the default for Maven.

So if your build attach a jar containing sources this will be skipped.
(no sources jar will be produce)
