Generally I'd expect you to have a lifecycle phase defined in the <execution> and then you'd run "mvn <phase>" and Antrun would be automatically invoked during that phase to start your Tomcat instance. If this startpTomcat step is not going to be a regular part of your build in this project, you can use Maven Profiles instead, but at that point I think there is no good reason to use Maven at all and you might as well use Ant directly with its own build.xml etc. Wayne --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
