Tomcat 8 + Tomcat Maven Plugin 2.2 + Tomcat8 Maven Plugin?

[Nick Williams <ni...@nicholaswilliams.net>]

https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/snapshots/org/apache/tomcat/maven/

In snapshots there is only tomcat6-maven-plugin and tomcat7-maven-plugin. So, even though my Maven dependencies are on Tomcat 8.0-SNAPSHOT, any "executable war" I build with the plugin has Tomcat 7 classes in it, meaning the application won't run (NoClassDefFound, etc.).

What needs to be done to get a tomcat8-maven-plugin snapshot started? Is this a whole new project that hasn't been started yet? Or does a new build configuration just need to be created?

I had not seen that. Thanks!

However, after some time I determined that I needed enough customization (Tomcat 8, Web Start class loader requirements, logging, etc.) that the maven plugin just wasn't going to cut it. I got it working nicely using the tomcat-embed-*, as per "Re: Executable Tomcat JAR/WAR executes fine standalone, class loading errors in JNLP" [1] and bug 54745.

Thanks,

Nick

Hi,
Apologize for delayed response.
I have not tested that. I don't know if embedder trunk (i.e tomcat8)
is compatible.
Did you try using tomcat8 snapshot as described here:
http://tomcat.apache.org/maven-plugin-trunk/tomcat7-maven-plugin/adjust-embedded-tomcat-version.html
