Liferay Portal 6.0 CE: missing src folder and web.xml in skeleton

Question

I use Liferay Portal 6.0 CE and SDK6.0.6 for portlet development.

To create a directory structure, I use the following command:

create.bat <project name> "<portlet title>"

However, the 'src' directory and the 'web.xml' is not created. I see only 'classes' directory.

I know that the directory structure should be as follows:

If I add a class to the 'src' directory, I get the following when building:

build-common-plugin.xml:347 ...
build-common.xml:90 ...

Some Ant task is called from 'build-common-plugin.xml' that references to the 'scr' directory:

<mkdir dir="docroot/WEB-INF/client/src" />

What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

Please check a folder \tools\portlet_tmpl in sdk.. This contains the template to create a new portlet.

You can have your src folder here and all other subsequent portlets will have src folder.
