Where did 'conf' or 'config' go? We currently have 'conf/share', 'src/conf', etc., but I don't see where those land in your structures.
I was assuming most of those things landed in src/resources. Personally, I'd be more comfortable with putting the things that get bound into the jar in src/resources under their final classpath. This works more automatically with maven, and I think it's clearer.
That is, move conf/share/chain-config.xml to src/resources/org/apache/struts/chain/chain-config.xml
Yes, I like that idea too.
I missed it too. I'm nervous that "modules" is too reminiscent of Struts modules specifically, especially since it's a relatively uncommon word otherwise. What's wrong with examples, besides that there's also an "example"? Should those two be merged? I have to admit that I haven't spent a lot of time with the example webapps (until this week!) and don't want to get in the way of anything you're motivated to do...
Ya, I thought of 'modules' since the app demonstrates how to use modules by repackaging 3 previously separate examples. I'll leave
it alone for now (keep it as 'examples') since that's what most of
us are used to.
No, that's fine. If you have an itch to put a Maven build system together, more power to you. I was actually taking tips from Maven for the Ant build system anyway. ;-)
On the topic, I think that one of the biggest perceived limitations of Maven for Struts right now is that it doesn't "do everything that the Ant build does."
Yes, I have made that exact statement on a number of occasions. Yet, the more I work with Maven, the more I like it. There are still things that aggravate the hell out of me, but I'm dealing with it. One day I can say I'm a Maven maven, but not today :P
While this is true, it's likely to become less so if we move the webapps and the Struts site into their own areas of the SVN repository. If "core" is really just about creating a struts.jar, I think we'll find that we can get Maven doing everything it needs to do much more readily.
