STS Tools 4.17.1 for Eclipse is ignoring files from src/main/resources

[iwanzarembo]

Description
The new STS Tools 4.17.1 for Eclipse version is ignoring files from src/main/resources. At the end also profile dependent settings. In fact it seems to ignore all files and configs in the resource folder.

To Reproduce
Create a new project (build tool maven) from the starter functionality with dependencies below:

• Spring Boot DevTools
• Spring Web

Then I copied a differentbanner.txt into the src/main/resources folder and started the application from the Boot Dashboard view.
The result is that the banner is not shown in the console.
See this simple demo video:

IDE_Bug_demo.mp4

The issue does not occur using STS Tools 4.16.0. See video:

IDE_Bug_demo_works.mp4

I am not sure if it helps, but I also checked out the command line when starting the application. The only difference is the used java agent.
Not working:
"-javaagent:C:\usr\IDEs\sts-bundle\sts-4.17.1.RELEASE\configuration\org.eclipse.osgi\267\0.cp\lib\javaagent-shaded.jar"
Working:
"-javaagent:C:\usr\IDEs\sts-bundle\sts-4.16.0.RELEASE\configuration\org.eclipse.osgi\268\0.cp\lib\javaagent-shaded.jar"

I think you are hitting this issue: #929 - therefore closing this as a duplicate. #929 (comment) contains a description how to grab the latest snapshot from m2e to fix the issue. I hope that there will be a new release of m2e around when we ship 4.17.2 in early Feb to include this fix.
