I have download a sample project and saw the below package structure.

src/main/java
src/main/resources
JRE System Library
Referenced Libraries
src
  main
    webapp 
      css
      user
      WEB-INF
target

Is it a best way to create the package structure. Normally when we create a dynamic project in eclipse it has one src folder and the WebContent folder in project root. The WEB-INF would be under the WebContent. But here we can identify two source folders and instead of WebContent we find webapp under the source folder not in root.

Despite its correct package structure or not i try to create the same in eclipse. But i cant rename the src folder to something like src/main/java know. It gives me an error

Cannot nest source folder “src/main/java” inside source folder “src”.

in eclipse when create a dynamic project

    This structure is maven based web base project and mostly for maven base project this structure is used, and as for as new conventions Maven is most popular deployment tool, so I myself recommend the maven base architecture.
