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.

That's really all I could find. Do you think we should just create a new issue?
 

> 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.

Right, that's what I mean.
 


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).

Yep. But I figure without Maven 2, it should still offer a way to configure the location, as we have already mentioned elsewhere in the discussion.
