I’m using Maven with overlay. I try to get Tomcat 7 run without having to copy all the files when I publish. The option is called "Serve modules without publishing".
You can see below that Tomcat end-up to receive two useful folders:
- docBase="C:\OPS_MAVENIZED_2\src\main\webapp"
- extraResourcePaths="C:\OPS_MAVENIZED_2\target\m2e-wtp\web-resources"
However, the overlay are not in one of them, but they are under “C:\OPS_MAVENIZED_2\target\m2e-wtp\overlays”.
Any workaround?
The expectation is that extraResourcePaths end-up having all the relevant paths.
A slow workaround would be that m2e copy the overlay in C:\OPS_MAVENIZED_2\target\m2e-wtp\web-resources.
