Whacky. project.xml has quite a bit of meta-data about your project (name, version, dependencies). I can't imagine how you could have anything other than a very trivial project without one. > >> >> You'll also need src/webapp/WEB-INF with the "normal" webapp stuff. eg >> -- web.xml, jboss-web.xml (if applicable), struts-config.xml (if >> you're doing struts), etc...

I would like that maven > copies the needes jars from the repository, is this possible? No, you don't need to hand-build src/webapp/WEB-INF/lib. By specifying the dependencies as mentioned in your project.xml maven will populate the warfile's /WEB-INF/lib correctly. Of course, if you're running without a project.xml I guess you would have to build it by hand. > > ---------------------------------- > Paulo Silveira ICQ 5142673 > Grupo de Usuários Java > http://www.guj.com.br/ > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- To > unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: > [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
