m2eclipse resource filtering
- by drewzilla
I've having problems with resource filtering using m2eclipse Maven support in Eclipse. It seems that filtering only takes place on resources that have changed. This is fundamentally flawed because, if I have a file that references properties (e.g. ${my.property}, if the value of the property changes, the filtering will only be performed if the referencing file is also modified - if I only change the property value (in my pom.xml), the filtering is not applied to the files that that reference it.
So, if I make a change to a property in my pom file, the filtering is not applied. However, if I then go to the file that references that property (e.g. a Spring config file) then edit and save it, the filtering is applied.
I did read somewhere that:
"m2eclipse skips filtering if there were no resource changes during incremental build"
I'm using m2eclipse 0.10.x
Has anyone else come across this?
Thanks,
Andrew
