Hello, this is what I posted last summer on Maven list:
I configured Eclipse 3.2, WTP 1.5 and Maven 2.0.4 to play in the same band. Here is how I prepared my environment for developing Tapestry web applications: 1. Create new Dynamic Web project with Eclipse. Enter src/main/webapp for Content Directory. Enter src/main/java for Java Source Directory. 2. Install Eclipse plugin via Help/Software Updates/Find and Install ( http://m2eclipse.codehaus.org/). 3. Install Eclipse plugin for synchronizing WTP Web App Libraries with Maven dependencies (http://adam.kruszewski.name/eclipse/) also with Software Updates. See http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNGECLIPSE-105?page=all for more on this sync issue. 4. Enable your project for Maven2 by right clicking on project and choosing Maven2/Enable. Enter POM values, don't forget to set war for Packaging. The icon indicating that your project is a WTP project will be replaced my small red letter m. Also Maven2 Dependencies library will show up (empty). 5. Right click on your project in Package Explorer (I work in Java Perspective) and choose Properties. Find LibCopy properties in the list and check the only checkbox and be sure that Local folder points to src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/lib. 6. Add dependent library (say Tapestry) by right clicking the project and then Maven2/Add Dependency. In the dialog type tapestry which will show up a list of possible artifacts. Choose version 4.0.2 and wait for all jars to download (there should be 10). Maven2 Dependency library in Package Explorer should now contain references to jars in your local maven repository. Also Web App Libraries should contain white jar icons with a small arrow in the lower right corner. 7. Configure Tomcat (or any other container) in Preferences/Server/Installed Runtime and then attach your project to this server instance. 8. Specific instructions for Tapestry can be found at http://wiki.apache.org/tapestry/HowToSetupEclipseWtp You can now change HTML _and_ Java source files without copying anything anywhere. This is as rapid as it gets in pro/large web app development as far as I can tell. Having HTML designer doing page mockups with Dreamweaver _in parallel_ with Tapestry coder, both using Subversion, is a winning game but this is already off-topic. I hope this recipe will get you up to speed. There are issues with this, it is not perfect. The other option is with Jetty Eclipse plugin or just plain mvn jetty:run.
