Needs more stuff to really help real world apps

[bytor99999]

So, I understand that this project is just about getting embedded Tomcat to deploy a simple app. But simple app doesn't cut it here for those of us actually using this to help deploy and run a real world app. For instance, your jsp page is just html. There is no jsp-ish about it. You need to include some includes, some taglibs because that is where most people will mess up and it not work, but there is no where to go to get help.

This would also help with any other dependencies needed in the pom file that aren't in the pom file in this project.

Like, what if we have a web.xml. There is no sample here with a web.xml.

Also, in the main code. Can this be documented more, to explain why things like this are in there.

String webappDirLocation = "src/main/webapp/";

Why point this to a source directory? Why not the jar or war file in the target directory?

Thanks

Well, it simply doesn not work for me. I get some exceptions:
java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: org.apache.catalina.LifecycleException: Failed to start component [StandardEngine[Tomcat].StandardHost[localhost]]
