#12 Discovery of WEB-INF location

[Javier Rodríguez Rodríguez]

The plugin tries lo locate struts-config.xml and web.xml
under <doc_root>/WEB-INF.

So the plugin supposes a source tree that couldn´t be
the desired or needed.

For instance, we work with something like this:
<project_root>
|
+- src (.java files)
|
+- docroot (web resources)
|
+- WEB-INF (web related descriptors)
|
+- META-INF (other descriptors like EJBs and so on)
|
+-lib
|
+-...

That's why we prefer designers and web authors to work
only under docroot dir, while developers can configure
descriptors on other directory.

żIs is possible to include an input in the preferences or
project properties to designate explicitly WEB-INF
location?

Thanks for this great plugin.

Support for flexible discovery and scanning of the
projects's resources to find the config files and infer the
WEB-INF location, ass the project may not have a deployedd
war directory structure.
