[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-12821) component.exclusion.patterns doesn't support regex pattern

[Rob Stryker (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-12821?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12725487#comment-12725487 ] 

Rob Stryker commented on JBIDE-12821:
-------------------------------------

The current implementation is related to ant's code, and ant does not use regex. I am not sure allowing regex to be supported here will be an easy task at all, as the classes being used are in project archives and may be hard to modify without breaking.

> Using maven-war-plugin, you can use packageIncludes/packageExcludes with a regex (e.g. http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-war-plugin/examples/including-excluding-files-from-war.html).
> With m2e-wtp, the property is correctly added to "org.eclipse.wst.common.component" setting file but JBoss AS tools only support 2 special characters ('*', '?').
