    I have relocated the META-INF folder within one of my EA projects, to:
    <EA>/src/main/resources
    but a warning appears
    “Missing application.xml deployment descriptor in META-INF folder IADApp”
    is there anyway to inform MyEclipse where the new location is?

    The reason that I am restructing my projects is that I am using maven, but it would be nice to get rid of the warning.

    I have successfully relocated the web root folder under a web project by changing the .mymetadata file, can you do the same for the EA?

    Regards.

    Sorry, but no there isn’t. MyEclipse handles all the build and deployment for you (without having to write a bunch of maven or ant), but the price for this ease of use is a small loss in absolute flexibility. What I’d suggest, since you’re doing your own builds anyway, is to use a plain Java project instead of one of our enterprise projects. The main reason to use our Enterprise project is for our build and deployment capabilities, which you’ve bypassed anyway. A plain Java project should be fine for your usage model.
