Ant to Maven migration

[sh...@wipro.com]

Hi,

 

I have a build.xml for my project. War file is generated using ant.

Is it possible to convert my project to maven project using maven ant
run plugin.

Please help me out.

 

Regards,

Shalini.

Many things are technically possible. But likely not the best way. If you
have a not too complicated project, I would suggest creating correctly Maven
structured project(s) using proper Maven plugins (like the war plugin). Will
make your Maven life easier in the long run and you get a standardized
structure, which Maven is much about.

Hi Shalini,

You can! But then you are really not using Maven. You are just using 
Maven to invoke your Ant.

I recommend you read more about Maven to really understand how you can 
do it effectively using Maven.

After you have read the basics you can look at this 
http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-webapp.html

Thanks,

Kalpak
