    copying Errai* properties to WEB-INF/classes

      I am unable to figure out which plugin actually kicks in copying the Errai*.properties from src/main/java to  war/WEB-INF/classes directory.  This is one critical piece of the puzzle I am missing.

          Yeah, the current build setup is a little tricky and doesn't follow the maven conventions.

          The reasons is that the IDE GWT plugins expect a specific directory structure.

          But to answer your question. It's part of the build configuration:

           

           

          <build>
 
        <!--
            include module descriptors from src/main/java
            in order not to break the Intellij GWT plugin
        -->
        <resources>
            <resource>
                <directory>src/main/java</directory>
            </resource>
        </resources>
 
</build>

           

          If you use the maven archetype we ship, everything should be layed out correctly.

            Heiko, yeah that makes sense.  Maybe you should add it as a caveat in your user guide, for folks trying out their own workspaces.

             

            If you use the archetype, I guess you do not have this issue, but that cannot be always the case where people may have their own build infrastructure, in which case, a tip/warning will be greatly beneficial.

             

            In a different project, I am facing problems with explicitly specifying directories (source, output, resources) etc in the build config because the maven source jar plugin bundles the source code in a wrong way. More like a domino effect with maven.

              I just moved the Errai* properties to src/main/resources and that takes care of things.  I do not need to specify the resource directories in the build configuration.
