我如何告诉Maven Tomcat在哪里？

Question

I am trying to launch tomcat using following maven command

mvn tomcat7:run

But how do I tell maven that tomcat is located at D:\\Tomcat\\

pom.xml

 <build>
    <finalName>test</finalName>
        <!-- MAVEN COMPILER PLUGIN -->
    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>3.1</version>
        <configuration>
          <source>1.6</source>
          <target>1.6</target>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>

    <!-- MAVEN TOMCAT PLUGIN -->
    <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.tomcat.maven</groupId>
        <artifactId>tomcat7-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.1</version>
        <configuration>
            <url>http://localhost:8080/manager/text</url>
            <server>tomcat-server</server>
            <path>/${project.build.finalName}</path>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </build>

Answer 1

mvn tomcat7:run is the command of tomcat7 maven plugin. To run it you don't need to tell external tomcat server. It automatically download the server from repository and run the project.

Answer 2

tomcat7-maven-plugin should automatically download Tomcat instance. So there is no reason to specify path to your local tomcat.
