But not during development, surely? When actually writing the files?

So I'll probably try to avoid it.
Thanks for your help.
I got the impression that Maven is intended to be used from the start of
coding on a project, but it doesn't seem to sit very well with
non-IDE-based development.
Is there no parallel case in Maven for the Ant model of copying files
from a source tree to a build location, as outlined in the Tomcat
Developer's Guide on the Apache Tomat homepage?

Thanks again,

Great stuff, thank you! I'll check them out.

Re: mvn jetty home?
Posted by Deron Eriksson <jo...@codestrategies.com>.
There is a configuration guide here that can probably answer your questions:
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/JETTY/Maven+Jetty+Plugin
You should be able to use the plugin by adding it to the
build->plugins->plugin section of your project's pom.xml, like:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.mortbay.jetty</groupId>
<artifactId>jetty-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>7.0.0.pre5</version>
</plugin>
Versions of the plugin before 7 apparently use maven-jetty-plugin as the
artifact rather than jetty-maven-plugin:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.mortbay.jetty</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jetty-plugin</artifactId>
<version>6.1.14</version>
</plugin>
The configuration guide describes configuration/execution of the various
goals.
Good luck,
Deron Eriksson

mvn jetty home?
Posted by Lee Goddard <le...@bbc.co.uk>.
Could someone please point me to the Maven Jetty home and/or help me
istall it?
http://mojo.codehaus.org/jetty-maven-plugin/index.html says little, but
when I follow those few instructions, I get the below error.
Also,it refers to the deprecated "m2" command - is Jetty alive and well
or should I be using something else?
Thanks in anticipation

have a look at the jetty:run and tomcat:run mojos... these will
package up the war files into a directory, start a jetty or tomcat
container respectively and serve the webapp in place, The jetty one
supports scanning of the source files and automatic reloading of the
webapp... I think the tomcat one might support the same, but I'm not
sure.
These mojos make CLI development trivial IMHO
