Description Benjamin Wolff CLA 2010-08-29 04:25:16 EDT 
It should be possible to specify folders or files that will be included in the WAR file.

Example:

To add a Database DataSource, or other JNDI resources, it is standard to include a META-INF/context.xml file. It should be possible to add the manually created META-INF folder and context.xml file to the build of the WAR file.

Is there any status on this? I'd think that adding special META-INF files like the context.xml would be an important feature to produce proper WAR files?! Am I the only one having this requirement? ;)

Maybe there is a workaround to add the files I mentioned in the bug description??

Thanks!
