Description

I have a project that is similar to

+ - ProjectA

• pom.xml

  + ProjectB
• pom.xml

Within the pom.xml for ProjectB there is an entry describing additional resources to include in the war

...
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<webResources>
<resource>
<directory>src/main/resources</directory>
<filtering>true</filtering>
</resource>
</webResources>
</configuration>
</plugin>
...

When running 'mvn install' from the project A directory, I get the following error

...
[INFO] Copy webapp webResources to C:\thinktank\thinktank-d1.1.0\server\server-webapp\target\server-webapp-1.1.0-SNAPSHOT

However, if I change the <directory> to

...
<directory>projectb/src/main/resources</directory>
...

The install goal works fine.

If I run 'mvn install' from projectb with the first configuration it does perform an install, ie, when the directory is configured as 'src/main/resources'. Seems like there is a problem in reading the base directory for hierarchical projects.

Thanks for taking a look at this.
