I think you've simply interpreted the documentation incorrectly. ;-)
The workDirectory (according to my reading of the docs) is only used when you
are using WAR overlaying. It will unpack the dependent WARs into work directory
and then merge your webapp with those files.

Hi guys,
I'm trying to use customized directory structure.
The following is my pom scripts(part),
<build>
<finalName>webapp</finalName>
<directory>target</directory>
<sourceDirectory>src/java</sourceDirectory>
<outputDirectory>target/classes</outputDirectory>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<webappDirectory>src/webapp</webappDirectory>
<workDirectory>target/work</workDirectory>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
I read docs at link
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-war-plugin/war-mojo.html
In my mind, Maven should unpack the war file into directory indicated by
"<workDirectory>".
But it doesn't work.
a cup of Java, cheers!
