Re: [m2e-users] wb-resource removed from org.eclipse.wst.common.componen

[Fred Bricon <fbricon@xxxxxxxxx>]

Removing test resources from deployment descriptor is expected from m2e-wtp, but I'm pretty sure this behavior predates Luna, as seen with [1].

I'm sorry but, currently, we have no way to allow user-defined resources be preserved in org.eclipse.wst.common.component, across project updates. I have a vague idea for that (using custom attributes/child nodes like pom.derived, similar to what is used in .classpath), but I'm not even sure it's possible to implement against current WTP's APIs. 

So you're options are :

- keep restoring the file contents manually, until someone fixes m2e-wtp/wtp

- contribute a fix to m2e-wtp/wtp. You can find instructions on setting up m2e-wtp development environment and instructions on submitting patches via gerrit at [2]. We can discuss about finding a proper solution on the m2e-wtp-dev list [3]

Lads,

I am not sure if the issue I am facing is related to m2eclipse or to Eclipse itself. So apologize if I am sending it to wrong place.

After a migration to eclipse-luna we realized that when we do a Maven => Update Project (and set Force update of snapshots/Releases) for a specific project we then end up with the project's org.eclipse.wst.common.component changed in a way that the following tags are removed from it:

 <wb-resource deploy-path="/" source-path="/src/test/java"/>

        <wb-resource deploy-path="/" source-path="/src/test/resources"/>

The original  org.eclipse.wst.common.component contains :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<project-modules id="moduleCoreId" project-version="1.5.0">

<wb-module deploy-name="Project_NAME">

        <wb-resource deploy-path="/" source-path="/src/main/java"/>

        <wb-resource deploy-path="/" source-path="/src/main/resources"/>

        <wb-resource deploy-path="/" source-path="/src/test/java"/>

        <wb-resource deploy-path="/" source-path="/src/test/resources"/>

</wb-module>

</project-modules>

Am I missing any extra configuration or could this be a bug? 

PS: It may look strange having src/test/* sdtuff in deploy but that is something that we haven´t change in the pass and it used to work so we leave it as it is. 

Also after the Force update I then re-edit the  org.eclipse.wst.common.component file putting back the removed tags and all worked fine. I mean we need the src/test/* in the deploy so the server starts fine in eclipse. 

I thank you help/comments in advance!

Cheers!

Flavio
