I have a project where I am replacing out the web.xml and other files using a war overlay in maven. Everything works great and then I try to import into eclipse and have all kinds of problems.
To start with I use mvn eclipse:eclipse to generate my Eclipse files. This works but the imported project does not contain the Dynamic Web facet.
Once the Dynamic Web facet (version 2.5) is added, the project still recognizes the deployment descriptor as 2.4 and gives me errors anyway even though it is;
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<web-app version="2.5" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee
http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_5.xsd">
Has anyone struggled through this type of thing before?
