hello everyone,
i know this has been discussed recently (also here:
http://www.nabble.com/War-plugin-and-filtering-webapp-files-t1617964.html) ,
but thevarious solutions and hacks proposed haven't solved my issue :(
Consider this snippet of web.xml:
<context-param>
<param-name>contextConfigLocation</param-name>
<param-value>
classpath*:/acegi.xml
classpath*:/springapp-servlet.xml
classpath*:/datasource-populator.xml
${dbms.filter}
</param-value>
</context-param>
I'd like to change the value of the dbms.filter variable value depending on
a given profile.
So i have the following in my pom.xml:
//configuration for the maven-war-plugin
<build>
<filters>
<filter>${basedir}/src/main/filters/webxml-filter.xml</filter>
</filters>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.0</version>
<configuration>
<webResources>
<resource>
<filtering>true</filtering>
<directory>${basedir}/src/main/webapp</directory>
<includes>
<include>**/*.xml</include>
</includes>
</resource>
</webResources>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</build>
then, a profile :
<profile>
<id>postgres</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>dbms</name>
<value>postgres</value>
</property>
</activation>
<properties>
<dbms.filter>classpath*:/springapp-pgdb.xml</dbms.filter>
</properties>
</profile>
so that when I issue : mvn clean -Ddbms=postgres i'm expecting the
web.xmlfile to be filled with the value
specified in the postgres profile. which actually is not happening.
the <filter> element is there only because I read it fixes some current
issues, and it actually refers to an empty filter file.
any suggestion is very appreciated.
