I am looking for suggestion in putting image file maven web project. One of classes under src/main/java need to use an image file. My problem is, if i put image file under src/main/webapp/images then application server cannot find that path on runtime(where myeclipse can ) because war archive do not have specified path "src/main/webapp/images".
My question is where should i put the image file that my project can find it without prompting any error or exception.
I am using
Java Web Application with Mavenized falvour
MyEclipse 10
Application Server: JBoss 6
Currently i do have following dir structure
Project Directory Structure
-src/main/java
-- classes
-src/main/resources
-- applicationContext.xml
-src/test/java
-- test classes
-src/test/resources
(nothing)
-src
-- main
--- webapp
--WEB-INF
--Images
--Css
--Meta-INF
-target
-pom.xml
And pom.xml's
build snippet is as follows
<build>
<sourceDirectory>${basedir}/src/main/java</sourceDirectory>
<outputDirectory>${basedir}/target/${project.artifactId}/classes</outputDirectory>
<resources>
<resource>
<directory>${basedir}/src/main/resources</directory>
<excludes>
<exclude>**/*.java</exclude>
</excludes>
</resource>
</resources>
<testResources>
<testResource>
<directory>${basedir}/src/test/resources</directory>
</testResource>
</testResources>
<finalName>${project.artifactId}</finalName>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<source>${jdk.version}</source>
<target>${jdk.version}</target>

Thanks in advance
