title: Does adding a directory as a resource in Maven include all subdirectories?
body: <p>With Maven, when you add a directory as a resource (in the POM - therefore adding it to the projects classpath), are all sub-directories automatically added too?</p>
  
  <p>Example:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    &lt;resources&gt;
          &lt;resource&gt;
              &lt;directory&gt;/project-directory/folder-in-project/resources/&lt;/directory&gt;
          &lt;/resource&gt;
      &lt;/resources&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>If the directory <em>resources</em> has an XML file called A.xml in it, <strong>and</strong> a folder (called moreResources), which contains files B.xml and C.xml, will all the XML files be accessible to my project? </p>
