Better solution then filtering?
First off great product!
I am using filtering for all of my property files that differ from multiple
environments (dev, uat, prod). I am a little stuck on how to filter files
that differ dramatically from env to env. One such file is a log4j
properties file. We have very different files depending on env. Is there
any way, without using ant, to copy these files to the target directories
based on which profile is used.

I was not fast enough... Some people on this list are insanely fast :)
Anyway, the question was asked a few weeks ago, and here was my reply:

It might save you some time over experimenting by yourself.

Not sure how I over looked that but it should work great for what I am
doing.
Thanks Dirk

i use filtering AND special resource directories:
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>development</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>env</name>
<value>development</value>
</property>
</activation>
<build>
<resources>
<resource>
<filtering>true</filtering>
<directory>src/main/resources/</directory>
</resource>
<resource>
<filtering>true</filtering>
<directory>
src/main/development-resources
</directory>
</resource>
</resources>
</build>
<properties>
<hibernate.show_sql>true</hibernate.show_sql>
<hibernate.format_sql>true</hibernate.format_sql>
</properties>
</profile>
</profiles>
In your main build section:
<build>
<resources>
<resource>
<filtering>true</filtering>
<directory>src/main/resources/</directory>
</resource>
</resources>
</build>
You can have a log4j.properties in src/main/resources and in
src/main/development-resources and the first one gets overwritten by the
second one IF development profil is active
kind regards,

One way would be to define profiles for your various environments. In
each profile, configure the resources section. (A look at
http://maven.apache.org/ref/current/maven-model/maven.html helps how to
do that).
Your project doesn't have a single resources dir then, but one for each
profile (and one for resources that are the same on all profiles, maybe)
