[jira] Closed: (MWAR-244) Provide a mechanism for not including or having an empty webapp directory

     [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MWAR-244?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Stephane Nicoll closed MWAR-244.
--------------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

I don't think adding a "empty webResource element equals remove the crap from a parent pom". I agree it might be useful in your case but this has no valid semantic. Just fix your parent pom. After all, if the parent states that some resources must be copied from directory foo (whatever the config is) then it means it's a corporate standard. If not, well the pom is wrong.
