Assuming you want to create a webapp with 1. package : com.mymaven.example.web 2.war name: MavenWebAppEx
Use the following command to have the maven-archetype-webapp create the webapp for you: mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=com.mymaven.example.web-DartifactId=MavenWebAppEx -Dpackagename= com.mymaven.example.web -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-webapp hope that helps, Javed On 6/13/06, Wayne Fay <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
If you drill down in the Central (ibiblio) repo and the Snapshot repo, you will find a number of Archetypes, including j2ee-simple, webapp, portlet etc. http://www.ibiblio.org/maven2/org/apache/maven/archetypes/ Give them all a try and see what kind of directories, poms, etc are created by each one -- perhaps you will find what you were originally looking for... But manually creating directories and modifying poms is the way I personally create most of my projects.
