Question

My project structure looks like this:

parent POM 
|-- app-core
|-- app-model
|-- app-services
`-- app-web

In my pom.xml for app-web:

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.mortbay.jetty</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-jetty-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>6.1.10</version>
    <configuration>
    <webDefaultXml>src/test/resources/webdefault.xml</webDefaultXml>
    </configuration>
 </plugin>

Hot deployment works properly and have no issues with mvn jetty:run

Question : app-core uses springs how can I configure this JNDI for Jetty maven plugin in this multi-module hierarchy which should be accessible in app-core module

Update :

Have added pom.xml like this

  <plugin>
    <groupId>org.mortbay.jetty</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-jetty-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>6.1.10</version>
    <configuration>
    <webDefaultXml>src/main/resources/webdefault.xml</webDefaultXml>
    <jettyConfig>src/main/resources/jetty.xml</jettyConfig>
    </configuration>
  </plugin>

And my jetty.xml looks like this :

  <Configure class="org.mortbay.jetty.webapp.WebAppContext">
<New id="icatDB" class="org.mortbay.jetty.plus.naming.Resource">
    <Arg>jdbc/testDB</Arg>
    <Arg>
<New class="net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbcx.JtdsDataSource">
    <Set name="serverName">localhost</Set>
    <Set name="databaseName">test</Set>
    <Set name="user">sa</Set>
    <Set name="password"></Set>
</New>
</Arg>
</New>
 </Configure>

After that when i run mvn jetty:run I get this error

Failure: Object is not of type class org.mortbay.jetty.webapp.WebAppContext

Ok this works for me :

I need to use jettyEnvXml instead of jettyConfig.

 <plugin>
    <groupId>org.mortbay.jetty</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-jetty-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>6.1.10</version>
    <configuration>
    <webDefaultXml>src/main/resources/webdefault.xml</webDefaultXml>
    <jettyEnvXml>src/main/resources/jetty.xml</jettyEnvXml> 
    </configuration>
  </plugin>
