A Struts project maven+eclipse oriented My steps to create a new Struts project maven+eclipse oriented

First I try that Maven is working:

C:\Eclipse\eclipse-3.0M8\workspace\MavenStruts>maven -v __ __ | \/ |__ _Apache__ ___ | |\/| / _` \ V / -_) ' \ ~ intelligent projects ~ |_| |_\__,_|\_/\___|_||_| v. 1.0-rc2 C:\Eclipse\eclipse-3.0M8\workspace\MavenStruts>

Using the plugin genapp with the template struts-jstl I create the project structure:

C:\Eclipse\eclipse-3.0M8\workspace\MavenStruts>maven -Dmaven.genapp.param=mavenstruts,mavenstruts,net.vitale.filippo.mavenstruts,fillo genapp __ __ | \/ |__ _Apache__ ___ | |\/| / _` \ V / -_) ' \ ~ intelligent projects ~ |_| |_\__,_|\_/\___|_||_| v. 1.0-rc2 Enter a project template to use: [default] struts-jstl build:start: genapp: [copy] Copying 1 file to C:\Eclipse\eclipse-3.0M8\workspace\MavenStruts\src\java [copy] Copying 1 file to C:\Eclipse\eclipse-3.0M8\workspace\MavenStruts\src\test [copy] Copying 2 files to C:\Eclipse\eclipse-3.0M8\workspace\MavenStruts\src\test-cactus [copy] Copying 6 files to C:\Eclipse\eclipse-3.0M8\workspace\MavenStruts [copy] Copying 5 files to C:\Eclipse\eclipse-3.0M8\workspace\MavenStruts BUILD SUCCESSFUL Total time: 20 seconds Finished at: Tue May 11 10:09:11 GMT+01:00 2004 C:\Eclipse\eclipse-3.0M8\workspace\MavenStruts>

I found 2 bugs (just notified to the issue tracking) here the workaround:

modify in project.xml:

      strutstest
      2.1.0

in:

      strutstestcase
      2.1-1.1-2.3

and replace these tag:

@ID@
@ID@
@NAME@
@PACKAGE@

C:\Eclipse\eclipse-3.0M8\workspace\MavenStruts>maven eclipse
 __  __
|  \/  |__ _Apache__ ___
| |\/| / _` \ V / -_) ' \  ~ intelligent projects ~
|_|  |_\__,_|\_/\___|_||_|  v. 1.0-rc2
