ant target for new project creation

[cjalmeida]

Well...

I got so completly lost on embedded-ejb + microcontainter + tomcat + seam + hibernate configurations that I couldn't make a working project. Tomcat keeps giving a NameNotFoundException on my local interface of the action stateless bean. So, I'm back to JBoss full j2ee container...


Nevertheless, I'd like to suggest something: ant targets in jboss-seam/build.xml to create skelleton project.

Like:

ant skelleton-jboss mydir

and it would create the mydir directory with the appropriate build.xml file, jar dependencies, xml config files, directory structure, and a readme.txt on where to put your .jsp, .java files and where to edit to create you datasources if needed.

Right, I totally agree on this.

We will add some new targets ASAP.

(Obviously, configuration is always going to be easier in the context of the EE container, since everything is already there, set up, waiting for you. Nevertheless, we should at least give people who want to run in tomcat something to work from in terms of the examples.)
