Re: [xwiki-devs] Help with waging WAR ;)

Hi, If you folowed the tuto at http://dev.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Community/DebugXEWithEclipse xe-web-dev is composed by Eclipse linked folders and maven or m2eclipse does not support it when building so a mvn install or any other building command will not see any of the folders which are not really in this project. The easier way to package a new clean war project based on XE is to create a maven war project with XE as parent and having your plugin as dependency. Something like: <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> <parent> <groupId>com.xpn.xwiki.products</groupId> <artifactId>xwiki-enterprise-web</artifactId> <version>1.7-SNAPSHOT</version> </parent> <artifactId>xwiki-myenterprise-web</artifactId> <name>XWiki Products - My Enterprise - Web</name> <packaging>war</packaging> <description>XWiki Products - My Enterprise - Web</description> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>com.xpn.xwiki.platform.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>xwiki-plugin-myplugin</artifactId> <version>1.0</version> </dependency> </dependencies> </project> On Thu, Dec 4, 2008 at 2:21 AM, Juergen Lorenz Simon &lt;simon(a)webtecc.com > wrote: > Hi, > > I've created an XWiki plugin, which uses a whole lot of frameworks > to > do it's job, including > WebObjects, ProjectWonder and some of our own frameworks.
