<br>
thanks for your congratulations and for your contribution. We have updated the database scripts in the available version. About your questions:<br>
<br>
1. We usually create two Maven artifacts. One of type pom, which uses the maven-vfs-plugin, and that includes the VFS-files and the opencms-module.xml file, like in the module system, but including directly the <module> element, taken from opencms-modules.xml. The other artifact is of type jar and will be referenced as dependency by the webapp module. This two artifacts will be referenced as modules by the parent project.<br>
<br>
2. You should create a new Maven module for the 3rd party OpenCms module like the one I describe in the previous answer. If you have the sources of the OpenCms module, you can also remove the jar corresponding to those sources, and generate this jar as an artifact in each Maven Build.<br>
So, the process should be the same you describe but in a new module of type pom which includes the plugin in the build section, like this:<br>
<plugin><br>
<groupId>com.comundus.maven</groupId><br>
<artifactId>maven-vfs-plugin</artifactId><br>
<executions><br>
<execution><br>
<id>clean</id><br>
<phase>clean</phase><br>
<goals><br>
<goal>clean</goal><br>
</goals><br>
</execution><br>
<execution><br>
<id>package</id><br>
<phase>package</phase><br>
<goals><br>
<goal>module</goal><br>
<goal>sync</goal><br>
<goal>publish</goal><br>
</goals><br>
</execution><br>
</executions><br>
<configuration><br>
<moduleVersion>1.0</moduleVersion><br>
<syncVFSPaths><br>
<syncVFSPath>/system/modules/my.module.path/</syncVFSPath><br>
</syncVFSPaths><br>
</configuration><br>
</plugin><br>
<br>
The text taken from opencms-modules.xml, has to be written in /src/main/opencms-module/opencms-module.xml<br>
<br>
3. About debugging JSP's, I would refer you to <a href="http://www.opencms-wiki.org/Remote_debugging_OpenCms_with_Eclipse_and_Netbeans" target="_blank">http://www.opencms-wiki.org/Remote_debugging_OpenCms_with_Eclipse_and_Netbeans</a><br>

Hope that helps<br>

Subject: Re: [opencms-dev] OpenCms-Maven Plugin - new release for OpenCms 7.5<br>
<br>
<br>
Congratulations for this helpful extension. I was a little bit struggling<br>
with the database setup. The create_table scripts are for older MySql<br>
version an so I got UTF8 problem with resource properties. After updating it<br>
to my database version from the OpenCms 7.5 source everything works fine.<br>
<br>
Please let me now if you have any best practice for these topics:<br>
<br>
1. How should be the project setup for developing custom modules with<br>
templates and Java classes. Should one deploy the JAR directly to the webapp<br>
or by the indirection of vfs:sync.<br>
<br>
2. How should 3rd party modules (like OAMP Webforms) be imported? Id did it<br>
this way:<br>
- Import the Module to a running OpenCms<br>
- Add the module path to the syncVFSPaths configuration in system/pom.xml<br>
- Call vfs:sync<br>
- Add the configuration from opencms-module.xml to<br>
system/src/main/opencms-modules.xml<br>
<br>
3. Is it possible to debug JSP's. Usually JSP's must be prefixed with<br>
"/jsp/offline".<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
Christian<br>
