In multimodule maven project. Need to access conf/properties file from one child to another child

Question

My project is multi module

parent

|
-----Child A

     src/main/resources/test.conf
|
-----Child B

     src/main/test/ (from here I want to access conf)

I have tried multiple options:

1) Added Apache Resource Bundles (https://maven.apache.org/apache-resource-bundles/)

2) using resource tag in pom.xml With maven - clean package, xml source files are not included in classpath

One observation : I can add .properties and .xml. Only .conf is not added as part of jar — Hutashan Chandrakar, Dec 13 '16 at 22:18
although your question seems to be answered, I would like to know how the answer respects your requirement, that you want to access `test.conf` from another child. — JimHawkins, Dec 14 '16 at 08:17
I have added dependencies on child B to child A. As conf is part of jar now, i can access these conf — Hutashan Chandrakar, Dec 15 '16 at 19:32

below is my answer , you need to remove exclude from pom for conf, if you have this plugin you can check


  <plugin>
 <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
 <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
 <version>${jar.plugin.version}</version>
 <configuration>
   <excludes>
     <exclude>job.xml</exclude>
   </excludes>
  </configuration>
 </plugin>
