It is the correct behaviour, it is designed by this way. In fact this filter applies to the build task and then everything from build directory is packaged into the WAR file. I agree that "Exclude From WAR File" description can be confusing. So it's not invalid. Is necessary to change the "behavior by design" to a more developer friend one. During development, either Tomcat and Glassfish run over "build" directory. During development, is desired the exclusions don't be applyied. But the WAR file should not include exclusions. In any case, even if you rename the option to "Exclude from build", the real "Exclude from WAR ONLY" is still a desired feature. I'm reopening the issue, and changing it from "Defect" to "Enhancement". OK, I meant that it is invalid from the current design and functional point of view. I agree with an enhancemnt. I think this enhancement is be valid for all NetBeans projects, not only for web project. |
