Java application using Maven Build

Question

My project team is using maven build. We have a package name as **/**/**/RCS under which all the classes are getting generated. But the jar does not contain these classes for some reason. Is there a way to include these classes into the RCS.jar?

We are using maven build to compile all the modules in the application. There is no problem with other packages having a similar format.

Please suggest where the issue can be.

Thanks in advance!!!

This is the pom.xml for the package. Have removed certain dependencies.

Answer 1

Try adding this to your pom.xml

<build>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>2.6</version>
            <configuration>
                <includes>
                    <include>**/RCS/*</include>
                </includes>
            </configuration>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>

Answer 2

the problem is resolved. Changed the default excludes in plexus-utils-2.0.5.jar/org/codehaus/plexus/util/AbstractScanner.java which was excluding **/RCS & **/RCS/**. Commented the RCS line and voila, it worked.
