Question

I’m working on a very simple blog engine in Java in order to learn multiple technologies.

Tech: Spring IoC, Hibernate, jUnit, GWT, and Maven.

I created two Maven projects: a core project and a GWT project (which has a reference on the core one)

Code is accessible at https://github.com/LaurentT/BlogEngineCore

My goal is the following: I want to include Java sources and XML since my GWT project is going to need the Java sources to compile it into JavaScript.

I tried to use the following code in the <build> element:

     <resources>
        <resource>
            <directory>src/main/java</directory>
            <includes>
                <include>**/*.java</include>
            </includes>
        </resource>
        <resource>
            <directory>src/main/resources</directory>
            <includes>
                <include>**/*.*xml</include>
                <include>**/*.*properties</include>
            </includes>
        </resource>
    </resources>

My jUnit tests used to pass and finish before that add but now they are not even finishing they are hanging…

I have no clue what’s going on, so I want to know if there are other ways to include Java sources or if I’m just doing it wrong.

Any clue?

Answer 1

try including the ${basedir} in front of the directory path.

<resource>
    <directory>${basedir}/src/main/java</directory>
</resource>
