How do I change in an eclipse web project the WebContent folder to something different?

问题

With the Galileo release it is finally possible to convert a normal Java project to a dynamic web project. Unfortunately it assumes that the Web stuff is located in a folder WebContent, which is not necessarily the case for an existing project. How can I change it? In MyEclipse it is quite easy, but with a stock eclipse I don't find such an option!

回答1:

I am not sure what you meant by "a stock eclipse", but Helios allows this functionality in a very straight-forward way:

Right click your dynamic web project and open "Properties".

Find Deployment Assembly and you should be able to set context paths from there.

I am not sure if there is UI for this or not, but you can edit file .settings/org.eclipse.wst.common.component, and change following line:

<wb-resource deploy-path="/" source-path="/WebContent"/>

Change /WebContent to your preferred directory. I use this for a several years now and encountered no problems with it.

Go in the project properties and do like this example where I use the Maven webapp folder:
