Building Struts with Maven

["Peter A. Pilgrim" <pe...@xenonsoft.demon.co.uk>]

Does Maven completely build all of Struts from CVS?

I just run `maven jar' and `maven war', but I do not
see building of the web app examples or the tiles documentation war.
What gives?

maven jar should just build struts-1.2.x.jar

I'm not sure what maven war should do since Struts has multiple 
webapps in the examples.

Ultimately, we should have some maven goal which is equivalent to ant dist.

I'd be wide open to at least suggestions about how the Maven build 
should be different -- I can understand why you want it to be 
complete, but might need some help conceptualizing what that means :^)

Again, we may want to do almost all of this with struts-specific 
named goals in maven.xml, which is generally as easy as copying 
something out of the build.xml.  In fact, it might be possible to use 
antcall and not even copy it; depends on whether the ant properties 
would be defined correctly, but since maven uses build.properties, 
odds are good it would be.
