The Maven Archetype will allow to create a new Richfaces Web Project for Eclipse JavaEE IDE with maven support.
After searching through internet I figured out that creating a Maven based web project for Eclipse JavaEE IDE is a very tedious task. Richfaces is a very good Ajax based JSF library and can be used to create very powerful and attractive project. This maven archetype creates a very basic Maven based Richfaces Java Web Project.
Requirements:-
* Maven 2
* Eclipse JavaEE IDE 3.4 ( Ganymede) or higher
* Apache Tomcate Server 6.0
* Maven 2 Plug-in for eclipse
Steps to create the Sample Project:-
* Install maven2
* Modify your MAVEN_HOMEconfsettings.xml, and Add this Profile to "profiles" section:
richfaces-maven-archetype true
