Description

When filtering a resource file, maven is too verbose. It's filtering a property that should not be filtered. Here's a snippet of the pom file:

<filters>
   <filter>src/test/resources/local.properties</filter>
</filters>
<resources>
   <resource>
      <directory>src/test/resources</directory>
      <filtering>true</filtering>
   </resource>
</resources>

The filtering is done correctly, however in the src/test/resources folder there is a spring configuation file which has the following:

<bean id="oracleDataSource" class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource">
   <property name="driverClassName" value="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"/>
   <property name="url" value="${oracleDataSource.url}"/>
   <property name="username" value="${oracleDataSource.username}"/>
   <property name="password" value="${oracleDataSource.password}"/>
</bean>

After the filtering is done here is the result of the spring configuration:

<bean id="oracleDataSource" class="org.springframework.jdbc.datasource.DriverManagerDataSource">
   <property name="driverClassName" value="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"/>
   <property name="url" value="http://maven.apache.org/acd-core"/>
   <property name="username" value="${oracleDataSource.username}"/>
   <property name="password" value="${oracleDataSource.password}"/>
</bean>

Note the filtered property of url. Since this is a specific property of Spring and not maven, it should not be filtered.

Thanks,
