[m2:newbie] Maven & Eclipse sysdeo

[Yann LE GUERN]

Hi,

I use Eclipse and Tomcat sysdeo plugin to develop a web project and I would 
like maven to create and export the war file of my project.

Here is the structure of my project in Eclipse :
MyWebProject
-- WEB-INF
---- classes (binaries generated by eclipse)
------ src
-------- java (my java source files)
-------- test (my test java source files)
---- web.xml
-- pox.xml

This structure does not really fit with maven's.
Here is what I tried for my pom.xml :

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0";
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance";
xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 
http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd";>
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<groupId>test</groupId>
<artifactId>myWebapp</artifactId>
<packaging>war</packaging>
<version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<name>Test Maven webapp</name>
<url></url>
<dependencies>
 <dependency>
  <groupId>junit</groupId>
  <artifactId>junit</artifactId>
  <version>3.8.1</version>
  <scope>test</scope>
 </dependency>
 <dependency>
  <groupId>log4j</groupId>
  <artifactId>log4j</artifactId>
  <version>1.2.12</version>
  <scope>compile</scope>
 </dependency>
 <dependency>
  <groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
  <artifactId>servlet-api</artifactId>
  <version>2.3</version>
  <scope>provided</scope>
 </dependency>
</dependencies>
<build>
 <sourceDirectory>WEB-INF/src/java</sourceDirectory>
 <testSourceDirectory>WEB-INF/src/test</testSourceDirectory>
 
<outputDirectory>c:/mavenBuilds/${pom.build.finalName}/target/classes</outputDirectory>
 <directory>c:/mavenBuilds/${pom.build.finalName}/target</directory>
 <finalName>mywebapp</finalName>
</build>
</project>

Here is the error :
[DEBUG] Configuring mojo 
'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-war-plugin:2.0-beta-2:war' -->
[DEBUG]   (s) classesDirectory = c:\mavenBuilds\mywebapp\target\classes

[ERROR] BUILD ERROR

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Error assembling WAR

Embedded error: Deployment descriptor: 
c:\mavenBuilds\mywebapp\target\mywebapp\WEB-INF\web.xml does not exist.


So my question is :
How can I make maven use WEB-INF/web.xml ?


Thanks for any help,
Yann.
