please put WEB-INF under view instead of resources (seam-gen) ------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBSEAM-2051 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-2051 Project: Seam Issue Type: Feature Request Components: Tools Affects Versions: 2.0.0.CR1 Reporter: Dan Allen Original Estimate: 1 day Remaining Estimate: 1 day I am aware that there is no hotter issue than this one. But PAUSE before rejecting it and hear me out. The current seam-gen project structure is src action model resources WEB-INF META-INF view IDEs choke on this structure, but it really comes down to just one folder. The src/ and resources/ directory really aren't a problem. The real problem is that WEB-INF/ just needs to be under view/. Seriously, if that can happen, the IDEs really will be happier. People are not arguing for the sake of arguing. This convention is the way that Sun laid out more than a decade ago and vendors have catered to it ever since (even JBoss). It's not like we woke up one day and said, gee, let's put WEB-INF/ in the folder with web artifacts. Rather than try to change the whole world, can we just move this one folder? I promise I am not arguing to read my own writing. Proposed structure src action model resources META-INF view WEB-INF
