You are saying Eclipse WTP actually reads the default from a
preference but it is not exposed in the preference pages ?
Then sure, lets open that up and even better submit a patch to
Eclipse WTP so it becomes available in the December release of WTP
3.2 which
we will need for other reasons anyway ;)
Here's the closes bug report I found:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=156417
I added my piece of mind to the issue report.
I think that you are referring to the wrong bug.
The user wanted to change the web content folder in the existing web
project using a project property.
Can't the JBT wizard simply offer a better default when the
project
is being setup?
I thought you wanted to configure a default web content folder for new
projects.
BTW, if m2eclipse imports an existing web project, it will set the web
content folder according to maven settings. If you don't set
warSourceDirectory to maven-war-plugin, the web content folder will be
/src/main/webapp (the maven default web folder).
