It creates the war file to my target folder inside eclipse workspace.
It should put the war folder to my desktop, but it only puts WEB-INF, META-INF folders there. Why?
You should use the outputDirectory option, not the webappDirectory

I have a Maven project with some properties files under src/main/resources. If i run mvn clean war:war from the terminal, i can get a war with these files under WB-INF/classes/, so it's ok. If I run "Maven Build" directly from Run Configurations window of Eclipse, my War does not include the files under src/main/resources. How can I fix it?
This is my pom.xml relevant part (I think)
<build>
<finalName>ProjectName</finalName>
<resources>
<resource>
<directory>src/main/resources</directory>
<filtering>true</filtering>
</resource>

Thank you!
I want to add a generated folder under target directory to build path .
Can I do it in the same pom.xml after I generate the sources.
I tried like below. That didn't help.
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-eclipse-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.10</version>
<configuration>
<sourceExcludes>
<!-- <sourceExclude>**/.svn/**</sourceExclude> -->
</sourceExcludes>
<sourceIncludes>
<sourceInclude>target/generated-sources/xjc</sourceInclude>
</sourceIncludes>
</configuration>
</plugin>
Please help
I have a common artifact where I store build-tools configuration files, e.g. checkstyle, pmd etc.
I can access the files and everything works as expected when I run from the console. The configuration files are included in my project and the reports are generated as expected when I run mvn site from the console.
However, files that are required by eclipse and should be included when mvn eclipse:eclipse is run are not to be found. I got an error telling me that the files cannot be found.
This is the important part of my POM.xml file:
<build>
<extensions>
<extension>
<groupId>com.foo</groupId>
<artifactId>build-tools</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
</extension>
</extensions>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-eclipse-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.9</version>
<configuration>
<additionalBuildcommands>
<buildcommand>net.sf.eclipsecs.core.CheckstyleBuilder</buildcommand>
</additionalBuildcommands>
<additionalProjectnatures>
<projectnature>net.sf.eclipsecs.core.CheckstyleNature</projectnature>
</additionalProjectnatures>
<additionalConfig>
<file>
<name>.checkstyle</name>
<location>${basedir}/eclipse-checkstyle.xml</location>
</file>
</additionalConfig>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
So my question is how to get maven to understand that these files, which is located in my build-tools artifact, to be included when I run the eclipse:eclipse command?
EDIT: It is the eclipse-checkstyle.xml that cannot be found.
You should add the jar holding the relevant sources as a dependency of the plugin, not an extention:
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-eclipse-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.9</version>
<configuration>
...
</configuration>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.foo</groupId>
<artifactId>build-tools</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</plugin>
</plugins>
I am in the process of migrating my build from Ant to Maven. The Ant build used to compile a "code generator", execute this "code generator" which produced a set of Java and C code. It then took the generated Java code and compiled it along with some additional code produce a single jar.
I have replicated this this in Maven quite easily and it works well when I run from the command line but Eclipse is complaining and is giving me an error relating to the pom file
Failure to find {group.id}:{artifact.id}:pom:1.0.0-SNAPSHOT in
http://{our internal site repository}/nexus/content/groups/public was
cached in the local repository, resolution will not be reattempted
until the update interval of snapshots has elapsed or updates are
forced
where the group.id and artifact.id are the group and artifact id of my code generator plugin
and any code that references the generated code also fails to compile.
My maven build consists of
a generator project that contains just the Java code for the code generator.
a generator-plugin project that contains just the code to wrap the generator as a Maven plugin. This is dependent upon the generator project.
an xyz project that uses the plugin to generate the code. The code ends up in the target/generated-sources/xxx folder of this project. I have configured the build-helper-maven-plugin as per Maven compile with multiple src directories to include this extra source directory.
If I manually add the generated source folder to the Eclipse build path all of the errors relating to the code not being there go away on that project but not on any downstream projects and the "Failure to find..." error listed above remains.
What puzzles me a little is that it is referring to the ...:pom:1.0.0-SNAPSHOT when in fact my generator-plugin is defined as a maven-plugin.
Is this a sensible approach?
Why am I getting a "Failure to find..." error?
Why isn't Eclipse picking up my generated-sources folders?
I should also say I have the m2e plugin and the m2e connector for build-help-maven-plugin installed in my Eclipse IDE.
It looks like a problem during the download of the lib from the repository. I already had the same error message once.
Did you take a look at your local repository?
Go to the .m2 folder and look for /nexus/content/groups/public. If the folder is there, open it and see if the lib was download correctly. If not, try to delete the folder and try to run mvn install to force the download of the lib.
At Eclipse, run Right button > Maven > Update Project too.
Are you using an local repository like Artifactory, aren't you? Also look for the lib in the repo1-cache (or similar) folder. See if the jar is there.
Are you behind any firewall or proxy?
Using eclipse Indigo3.7, this was what I found that worked good using spring 3.1.1 which does have the 3.0.6 version as well in it. Once I got the plugins setup and put into the correct area of the pom and included the argline and endorseddirs to have the java sources put out into the target/generated-sources/cxf folder then maven generated the sources ok.

I use maven-war-plugin to build WAR, and I need to exclude several WAR classes from web-inf/classes (that's GWT classes, they shouldn't get to server deployment).
How can I do it in maven?
I tried "warSourceExcludes", "packagingExcludes" with no success.
Any simple and creative solution in maven is acceptable, I need it for a test project.
thanks
Configuring packagingExcludes for the maven-war-plugin works for me:
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.1</version>
<configuration>
<packagingExcludes>WEB-INF/classes/**</packagingExcludes>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
