First time i created a project using mvn archetype:create -DgroupId=com.careertales -DartifactId=careertales -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-webapp.
I got a folder structure as : src/main -- resources -- webapp In resources folder,i placed a simple java file(Test.java) which just prints a string.In webapp folder,I got some default index.jsp file and a web-inf folder.Then i executed mvn install command.I got Build Successful in my console.I am able to see a target folder created.Inside this target folder i have war,classes,careertales.war folders.Then i executed mvn compile command.Inside classes folder, my point is i should see the class file of Test.But instead i can see the same Test.java file in classes folder.What is going wrong? After that i placed a java file(This file prints a string) matinh wrote: > > On Thursday 16 October 2008 Jan K wrote: >> I went through the site given by arnaud.It is really useful for as i am >> new maven. > > Through the whole book?
