[jira] Commented: (MECLIPSE-576) Merge resource dirs shall pass gracefully

["Hoom (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MECLIPSE-576?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=195440#action_195440 ] 

Hoom commented on MECLIPSE-576:
-------------------------------

See also this entry on offitional maven's resources documentation (scroll to the end of page) which doesn't work anymore: http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-resources-plugin/examples/filter.html

=========================================================
Warning: Do not filter files with binary content like images! This will most likely result in corrupt output. If you have both text files and binary files as resources, you need to declare two mutually exclusive resource sets. The first resource set defines the files to be filtered and the other resource set defines the files to copy unaltered as illustrated below:

{code:xml} 
<project>
  ...
  <build>
    ...
    <resources>
      <resource>
        <directory>src/main/resources</directory>
        <filtering>true</filtering>
        <includes>
          <include>**/*.xml</include>
        </includes>
      </resource>
      <resource>
        <directory>src/main/resources</directory>
        <filtering>false</filtering>
        <excludes>
          <exclude>**/*.xml</exclude>
        </excludes>
      </resource>
      ...
    </resources>
    ...
  </build>
  ...
</project>
{code} 

and the error:
{noformat}
[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

> .project generation is failing for folks in our team that have updated to the 2.7 release. It's due to {{EclipseSourceDir#merge()}} added in this version. The reason why it is failing at our end because we use resource filtering on resources appearing on the same path, i.e.
> {noformat}
> <resources>
> 	<resource>
> 		<directory>src/main/resources</directory>
> 		<includes>
> 			<include>**/*</include>
> 		</includes>
> 	</resource>
> 	<resource>
> 		<directory>src/main/resources</directory>
> 		<includes>
> 			<include>**/*.properties</include>
> 		</includes>
> 		<filtering>true</filtering>
> 	</resource>
> </resources>
> {noformat}
> {noformat}
> [INFO] Request to merge when 'filtering' is not identical. Original=resource src/main/resources: output=target/classes, include=[**/*], exclude=[**/*.java], test=false, filtering=false, merging with=resource src/main/resources: output=target/classes, include=[**/*.properties], exclude=[**/*.java], test=false, filtering=true
> {noforrmat}
> I don't think fixing the POM to fit the plugin is a feasible solution. We have Spring XML files and other documents that use ant style properties and we don't wish Maven to perform filtering for us on them (see first {{<resource>}} tag). It should just pass it like what it used to be in previous versions.
