Hello. I’m new to MyEclipse and so far, very impressed.
I have a Web app I want to deploy on Tomcat. I want to use log4j with it. I am supposed to put the log4j.properties file in WEB-INF/classes. This directory exists on file system but it is not visible in my eclipse. I can’t seem to add it because eclipse want to create the directory.
If I manually drop it in the WEB-INF/classes directory on the server (not dev machine), when I redeploy the web app, the classes directory gets recreated without my log4j.properties file.
What’s the proper way to include this?
Thanks.
Andrew PierceAndrew,
The file needs to go into the root of your /src directory. Then Eclipse will build it into the /classes directory. The classes dir is hidden because in Eclipse it is “cleaned” or deleted every time you rebuild your project. Any files you need, need to live in your /src dir, they will be built or copied over accordingly.
