  1. POMaven exec-plugin pom.xml definition: activate shell interpretation for characters
    text
    copied!<p>I use the Maven plugin exec and have defined it in a profile of my pom.xml like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;profile&gt; &lt;id&gt;optimizepng&lt;/id&gt; &lt;build&gt; &lt;plugins&gt; &lt;plugin&gt; &lt;groupId&gt;org.codehaus.mojo&lt;/groupId&gt; &lt;artifactId&gt;exec-maven-plugin&lt;/artifactId&gt; &lt;executions&gt; &lt;execution&gt; &lt;phase&gt;prepare-package&lt;/phase&gt; &lt;goals&gt; &lt;goal&gt;exec&lt;/goal&gt; &lt;/goals&gt; &lt;/execution&gt; &lt;/executions&gt; &lt;configuration&gt; &lt;executable&gt;optipng&lt;/executable&gt; &lt;arguments&gt; &lt;argument&gt;src/main/webapp/images/*.png&lt;/argument&gt; &lt;/arguments&gt; &lt;/configuration&gt; &lt;/plugin&gt; &lt;/plugins&gt; &lt;/build&gt; &lt;/profile&gt; </code></pre> <p>Now, if I set the argument that I defined in this code sample to <code>&lt;argument&gt;-h&lt;/argument&gt;</code>, the terminal call <code>mvn org.codehaus.mojo:exec-maven-plugin:exec -P optimizepng</code> works as expected and prints out the help of optipng.</p> <p>What I figured out is, that the asterisk may not be interpreted as a shell character. Could this be the reason for it? If so, is there a tag that I can apply anywhere to toggle shell interpretation?</p> <p>Additional info on my plan in the first place: I want to optimize all png files in the src/main/webapp/images/ folder, using optipng. What I would use as a shell command is <code>optipng src/main/webapp/images/*.png</code>.</p>
