Maven multi-module multi-profile project with shared resources - maven

Question

I'm trying to have my resources copied into a classpath depending on which profile was selected using maven. My resources folder structure is as following:
src/main/resources:
config
production
development
staging
My current not-working config is
<profile>
<id>development</id>
<activation>
<activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault>
<property>
<name>envtype</name>
<value>dev</value>
</property>
</activation>
<build>
<finalName>Corelay</finalName>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0</version>
<configuration>
<source>${java.version}</source>
<target>${java.version}</target>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
<resources>
<resource>
<directory>src/main/resources</directory>
<includes>
<include>**/*.xml</include>
<include>**/*.properties</include>
</includes>
<excludes>
<exclude>**/production/**</exclude>
<exclude>**/staging/**</exclude>
</excludes>
</resource>
</resources>
<testResources>
<testResource>
<directory>src/test/resources</directory>
<includes>
<include>**/*.xml</include>
<include>**/*.properties</include>
</includes>
<excludes>
<exclude>**/production/**</exclude>
<exclude>**/staging/**</exclude>
</excludes>
</testResource>
</testResources>
</build>
</profile>
In hibernate configuration file under config/hibernate/hibernate-config.xml i request some properties from same package
<bean
class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer">
<property name="locations">
<list>
<value>classpath*:**/jdbc.properties</value>
<value>classpath*:**/hibernate.properties</value>
</list>
</property>
</bean>
but there is an error:
Could not resolve placeholder 'jdbc.driverClassName' in string value "${jdbc.driverClassName}"
this property is defined in that file. What's wrong? And another question is how to make resources copied from those profile folders appear in exactly same output classpath structure? I mean there should be no /production, /development or /staging : just /env
I know I could just put them into separate in but then if there are shared ones (like config in the presented structure) how could I include it too?

Answer 1

Create a folder src/main/config at the same level as src/main/resources. Inside create 3 sub-folders common, dev and production:
|__common
| |__common.properties
|__dev
| |__dev.properties
|__prod
| |__prod.properties
Then configure two profiles, dev and production:
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>dev</id>
<activation>
<activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault>
</activation>
<build>
<resources>
<resource>
<directory>src/main/config/common</directory>
</resource>
<resource>
<directory>src/main/config/dev</directory>
</resource>
</resources>
</build>
</profile>
<profile>
<id>prod</id>
<build>
<resources>
<resource>
<directory>src/main/config/common</directory>
</resource>
<resource>
<directory>src/main/config/prod</directory>
</resource>
</resources>
</build>
</profile>
</profiles>
With this, mvn clean install copies common.properties and dev.properties to the root of the classpath, as the dev profile is active by default.
mvn clean install -Pprod will then install common.properties and production.properties, but no dev.properties, and also to the root of the classpath.
