Maven's current working directory and changing resources location
...
I have two questions, answers to which were not obvious.
1- What is the current working directory (i.e.
System.getProperty("user.dir"))? Can this be printed
when one does "mvn -X ..."?
2- In our company we have resources (properties files for resource bundles)
along side the Java sources
because we have an ongoing strategy for Localized Strings where the
developers prefer to keep the
strings used by com.example.Foo at the same location in a file named
"LocalStrings.properties".
I added:
<build>
<resources>
<resource directory="src/main/java"/>
</resources>
</build>
for my resources to get copied into target folder upon "mvn package". But
I get:
Project ID: org.bykedar:learnmvn
POM Location: /Users/kedar/Personal/bnevins/projects/learnmvn/pom.xml
Validation Messages:
[0] 'build.resources.resource.directory' is missing.
Reason: Failed to validate POM for project org.bykedar:learnmvn at
/Users/kedar/Personal/bnevins/projects/learnmvn/pom.xml
Is there an example somewhere of how to do this?
Thanks,
Kedar

Here is a more detailed description of my solution, maybe it can work in
your case too:
...
<packaging>pom</packaging>
...
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-assembly-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<appendAssemblyId>false</appendAssemblyId>
<descriptors>
<descriptor>src/main/config/assemble/webapp.xml</descriptor>
</descriptors>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>make-assembly</id><!-- this is used for
inheritance merges -->
<phase>package</phase><!-- append to the
packaging phase. -->
<goals>
<goal>single </goal><!-- goals == mojos -->
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
...
and webapp.xml is:
<assembly>
<id>webapp</id>
<formats>
<format>war</format>
</formats>
....
<dependencySet>
<includes>
<include>artifactName </include>
</includes>
<scope>provided</scope>
<outputFileNameMapping>filename</outputFileNameMapping>
</dependencySet>
</assembly>
You have to define the dependency in the pom.xml also. Hope it helps,
although I don't consider it a clean solution.

This in my case cannot work, as the dependency is a module of the same
project (it is an applet that needs to be put inside a war)
I tried it with maven-dependency-plugin injecting the dependency in the
correct directory. All went well until the time of the release. During
the release it was giving me a dependency not found error, since it was
not installed yet (it is included in the same release). So I rejected
that solution and went to maven-assembly-plugin. (hooked assembly in
package and set "pom" packaging type).
Somewhere I read if I remember correclty that in the release plugin you
should put install in the preparationGoals in special cases like this,
but never tried it. Anyone had any similar problems?

Thank you. I somehow misread "directory" as an attribute of <resource>.

Hi
For changing Resources location you can give the following :
<build>
<resources>
<resource>
<directory>src/main/java</directory>
</resource>
</resources>
</build>
and place the properties file in the directory src/main/java .
Then the properties file will be incuded in your generated jar file .
Thanks
