Thanks Brian,
I will check into dependency-maven-plugin. In the meantime, I had
solved it. This seems to be anti-Maven, b/c it uses an environment
variable, but it seems to work. I added these two goals to maven.xml
<goal name="check-props">
<j:if test="${context.getVariable('geoserver.home') == null}">
<j:if test="${context.getVariable('env.GEOSERVER_HOME')
== null}">
<fail>Please set either env-var GEOSERVER_HOME
or Maven var
geoserver.home</fail>
</j:if>
<echo>Setting geoserver.home to
${env.GEOSERVER_HOME}</echo>
<j:set var="geoserver.home"
value="${env.GEOSERVER_HOME}"/>
</j:if>
</goal>
<goal name="geoserver" prereqs="jar, check-props" description="Copy
the Diamond Jar to GeoServer">
<echo>GeoServer Home is = ${geoserver.home}</echo>
<ant:copy file="${maven.build.dir}/${maven.final.name}.jar"
todir="${geoserver.home}\server\geoserver\WEB-INF\lib"/>
</goal>
