Currently, the wizard for creating a new web project creates the project with the Jakarta structure. It should be possible to create a web projects with other structures, most importantly the J2EE Blueprints structure as specified at http://java.sun.com/blueprints/code/projectconventions.html This could be implemented as follows: in the Name and Location panel of the new Web Application wizard, there would be a combo box called "Source Structure:". In this combo box, the user could choose one of the following: Java Blueprints [selected by default] Jakarta Custom If the user chooses Custom, she is presented with an additional panel that allows her to specify doc base, Java sources root, tests root (when we support tests) etc.
Adding J2EE_BLOCKER, since it will impact a lot our BluePrint Integration Story. I think the default project layout should always follow the blueprint conventions. Related to this, do we have a bug regarding the usage of Web Application instead of Web Module terminology and other blueprint conventions that are not followed (i.e a war file name as to be lower case,...)? Do we know if RFEs can be fixed for NB4.0?
> Related to this, do we have a bug regarding ... No we don't. > Do we know if RFEs can be fixed for NB4.0? If there is mutual agreement of all parties, then we can think of addressing some specific RFEs. However, I don't think this one is crucial for 4.0. There are other higher priority issues, such as issue #48279.
