I am trying to change the location of the WebContent folder the Eclipse
references so that I can get the project to correctly read the folder
hierarchy that Maven2 generates. In Maven, the source files for the web
pages (normally contained in the WebContent folder; classes folder
excluded) are stored at src/main/webapp and the compiled classes at
target/classes. Basically, the final directory structure would be:
project/
src/
main/
java/
[*.java source files]
webapp/
[*.html, *.jsp[x], *.tld, etc]
test/
java/
[*.java test source files]
target/
classes/
[compiled class files]
project.war
instead of:
project/
JavaSource/
[*.java source files]
WebContent/
WEB-INF/
classes/
[compiled class files]
[*.html, *.jsp[x], *.tld, etc]
I can't seem to find any settings to accomplish this in the project
Properties dialog box nor in any of the generated project config files.
BTW: I had no problem changing the Java source folders or the output
folder, just the WebContent folder.
Thanks in advance,
Chris Lieb

The relevant setting is stored in the following element in the
..settings/org.eclipse.wst.common.component file:
<wb-resource deploy-path="/" source-path="/WebContent"/>
(this element maps the contents of the "WebContent" folder into the root of
the published web module)
Although no UI support for changing this exists, I just released changes
(will be in this week's WTP 2.0 RC0 I-build) that will automatically update
this element when the user renames or moves the WebContent folder (this
actually applies to any non-Java src folder that is mapped in the
org.eclipse.wst.common.component file; such support already exists for
changes to mapped Java src folders)

I had tried changing that setting, but it didn't seem to have any
effect. It still tried creating a new WebContent folder every time I
opened the IDE. Maybe it's just one of those IBM "contributions" that
they make to Rational App Developer before releasing it for sale.
Thanks,
