maven-jetty-plugin for jetty 7.3 and forward

Question

Where is maven-jetty-plugin for jetty 7 ?

Do you have a working pom?

Do I need another repo rather than default repo1 from maven ?

Answer 1

The maven-jetty-plugin was renamed to jetty-maven-plugin at version 7.0.0.pre5.

Maven coordinates for the old one: maven-jetty-plugin

Maven coordinates for the NEW one: jetty-maven-plugin

Both are available from the default maven repository.

NOTE: You need to use Maven 3 for jetty-7.5.3 and later releases.

Answer 2

In a Roo generated project, for Jetty 8.0, I've this in the build section of my pom.xml ( <project> <build> <plugins> <plugin> )

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.mortbay.jetty</groupId>
    <artifactId>jetty-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>8.0.1.v20110908</version>
    <configuration>
        <webAppConfig>
            <contextPath>/${project.name}</contextPath>
        </webAppConfig>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

I guess that other versions would work too. If it doesn't work, here is my full repository list. Maybe you can identify which one does the trick adding one at a time and share us back...
