java classes not found in WEB-INF in maven build

Question

I am working on a project using flex and Java at the back end. It's a web-app project. The thing is when i compile it through Eclipse it's well and good. But when i use maven to build the war, i don't get class files inside my WEB-INF\classes folder. Had anyone come across with such a problem, i don't get any errors, but still there is no class files.

I had attached my POM file here

<?xml version="1.0" ?>

If you are trying to remove the JAR files while not removing the other files, you should replace <packagingIncludes>WEB-INF/lib/*.jar</packagingIncludes> with <packagingExcludes>WEB-INF/lib/*.jar</packagingExcludes>
