R=E9my Sanlaville commented on JETTY-381:
---------------------------------------

I agree that this feature is very useful when you want to separate the sour=
ce files and the generated sources files.

I also found no solution for this need.=20
For the moment, we have  to merge the generate source (like generate files =
from xdoclet ) with our source files, but it's unsatisfactory.

> Context
> -----------
> I want to use maven-jetty-pling in hotdeploy mode.
> My web app use Struts Framework.
> I also use Xdoclet in order to generate the struts-config.xml and validat=
ion.xml
> But I want to generate these files in a target directory in order to sepa=
rate the source and generated files
> Unfortunatly, this does seems not possible yet because I need to inform j=
etty that my web app source directory is split in two differents paths (src=
/main/webapp and target/xdoclet/)
> In fact, I need to configure the struts servlet in the web.xml like this =
:=20
> <init-param>
>    <param-name>config</param-name>
>    <param-value>/generated/struts-config.xml</param-value>
> </init-param>
> It's important to notice that the solution adding the path (target/xdocle=
t/) in the classpath do not solve my problem. In fact, the problem is not r=
elated to the classpath but rather to the web app source directory.
> Need
> --------
> The only solution seems to add a new feature to jetty in order to be able=
 to use multiple web application source directories.
> In our case, we would like to have something like that:
> <Call name=3D"addLifeCycle">
>   <Arg>
> =09<New class=3D"org.mortbay.jetty.deployer.WebAppDeployer">
> =09  <Set name=3D"contexts"><Ref id=3D"Contexts"/></Set>
> =09  <Set name=3D"webAppDirs">
> =09=09  <Array type=3D"java.lang.String">
> =09=09=09=09<Item>src/main/webapp</Item>
> =09=09=09=09<Item>target/xdoclet/</Item>
> =09=09  </Array>
> =09  </Set>
> =09  [...]
> =09</New>
>   </Arg>
> </Call>
