_muleExlude to ignore files/folders - NOT WORKING

[kaushikbbr]

The ignore files or folders to be the part of application package is not working as expected.

Even after including the files name as per the glob pattern or regex or the exact file name it is still packaging the files as part of the jar being built.

Same issue has been addressed in the following stackoverflow also;

Can anyone suggest if this really is a bug or am i getting it wrong?

I followed the official documentation https://docs.mulesoft.com/mule-runtime/4.3/package-a-mule-application#exclude-files-from-the-application-package and also few help forum topics https://help.mulesoft.com/s/article/How-to-exclude-the-file-or-folder-at-the-root-level-of-the-mule-application-package-using-muleExclude but in vain.
