-----------------------------------

             Summary: CLONE - dependentWarExcludes is deprecated but 
                 Key: MWAR-368
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MWAR-368
             Project: Maven WAR Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: overlay
    Affects Versions: 2.1.1
            Reporter: Joerg Schaible

Hello,

DependentWarExcludes is marked as deprecated. Documentation says to use <overlay>/<excludes> instead.
But it seems to me that it is not possible to get the same behaviour with <overlay>/<excludes> as in this case we have to provide groupIds and artifactIds.
Maybe this behaviour could be reproduced when setting both groupId and artifactId to * as below :
<overlays>
	<overlay>
		<excludes>
			<groupId>*</groupId>
			<artifactId>*</artifactId>
			<exclude>**/*</exclude>
		</excludes>									
	</overlay>
</overlays>

By the way, I found this, by looking for a way to disable overlay. The workaround I thought was configuring your plugin to exclude every files when overlaying.
I think it would be nice to have a configuration parameter for that.

Many thanks,

Dool
