I just added jspc plugin to my project yesterday. And I'm having some
limited success. The JSPs are getting compiled (woohoo) but the
web.xml modification piece is not working as documented.
Here's the contents of my pom:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>jspc-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>jspc</id>
<goals>
<goal>compile</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
<artifactId>jstl</artifactId>
<version>1.1.2</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>tomcat</groupId>
<artifactId>jasper-compiler</artifactId>
<version>5.5.12</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
<artifactId>servlet-api</artifactId>
<version>2.4</version>
<scope>provided</scope>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>tomcat</groupId>
<artifactId>jasper-runtime</artifactId>
<version>5.5.12</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
<artifactId>jsp-api</artifactId>
<version>2.0</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<archive>
<manifest>
<addClasspath>true</addClasspath>
</manifest>
</archive>
<webXml>${basedir}/target/${pom.artifactId}-${pom.version}/WEB-INF/web.xml</webXml>
</configuration>
</plugin>
And I added this to my web.xml file as directed by the plugin documentation:
</servlet>
<!-- [INSERT FRAGMENT HERE] -->
The actual JSPs are getting compiled which is great.
But my web.xml in target ends up empty, 0 bytes, so something isn't
working quite right.
Anyone else using JSPC and having better success??
