When using maven in eclipse, it is better to let maven to produce the eclipse stuff instead of webAppCreator using the undocumented option -XnoEclipse, and use the google eclipse plugin to launch the app in dev mode:
1.- webAppCreator -noant -maven -XnoEclipse com.example.MyApp 2.- You can use eitehr: - If you have m2eclipse plugin already installed in eclipse, import the project as a maven project - Otherwise, execute mvn eclipse:eclipse and import it as a existing eclipse project 3.- Install google plugin for eclipse, and mark the checkbox Project -> Google -> Web Toolkit -> 'Use Google Web Toolkit'. 4.- Then configure the project's war folder Project -> Google -> Web Application -> This project has a war folder -> src/main/webapp unmark 'Launch an deploy from this directory', and the first time you launch it, select target/www Cheers - Manolo On Thu, Nov 18, 2010 at 11:07 PM, PeteUK <newbar...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello, > > Using webappcreator with the new -maven option > > C:\MyApp>webAppCreator -noant -maven com.example.MyApp > > creates a pom.xml with outputDirectory specified under target/www: > > <build> > <!-- Generate compiled stuff in the folder used for developing > mode --> > <outputDirectory>target/www/WEB-INF/classes</outputDirectory> > .... > </build> > > The .classpath file created has a DIFFERENT output directory: > > <classpath> > ... > <classpathentry kind="output" path="src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/ > classes"/> > </classpath> > > This means there are 2 sets of .class files; one from mvn compile, and > one from Eclipse when the project is imported or via incremental > compiles when individual .java files are changed.
