Eclipse and Tomcat and Maven

The optimal setup of a maven / eclipse / tomcat web project is setup as follows:

• [Download and install java 1.6]
• [Download and install Eclipse Galileo JEE]
• [Download and install Tomcat 6.0.x]
• Download SysDeo (eclipse-)plugin from http://www.eclipsetotale.com/tomcatPlugin.html
• Extract the zip to ECLIPSE_HOME/plugins
• [Re-]start eclipse with -clean option
• Set Tomcat version and home in Preferences - Tomcat
• Make sure Eclipse default JRE is a JDK
• Set your Eclipse project to be a Tomcat project: Project Properties - Tomcat
• Set a context path
• Set the Subdirectory to use as web app root to /src/main/webapp
• Activate DevLoader
• Check all jars, then uncheck test classes and servlet-api.jar
• Copy DevLoader.zip from ECLIPSE_HOME/plugins/SYSDEO to TOMCAT_HOME/lib and rename it to .jar
