Question

it’s better that once mvn archetype:generate is runed, it can do all the things needed to create a project which support mvn jetty:run, but the fact is there are so many templates that i don’t even know which one i should choose in order to create a project which support mvn jetty:run, even when -Dfilter option is used, i cannot find the right template to do the thing i want.
so how to how to create a project which support mvn jetty:run quickly?
it’s better that i can do all the things simply with one command, that is
command 1: create projects
command 2: mvn jetty:run to run this web application:)

From the Maven Jetty plugin doc:

In order to run Jetty on a webapp project which is structured
according to the usual Maven defaults (resources in
${basedir}/src/main/webapp, classes in
${project.build.outputDirectory} and the web.xml descriptor at
${basedir}/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml, you don’t need to
configure anything.

Simply type:

mvn jetty:run

This will start Jetty running on port 8080 and serving your project.

So you need to use the jee6-basic-archetype (number 414) which will generate the required folder structure.

More information about configuring the plugin is available in the doc.
