Java Project Structure

In Eclipse to add the structure folders choose New -> Soure Folder

Select the chech box "Update exclusion filters into other source folders to solve nesting"

• Within the project_name folder, we'll create the folders that are customary for a Java application:

project_name/src
project_name/src/main
project_name/src/main/java
project_name/src/main/resources

• For web applications, we need a webapp and WEB-INF folder:

project_name/src/main/webapp
project_name/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF

• We also need to create the folders that are required for unit testing our application:

project_name/src/test
project_name/src/test/java
project_name/src/test/resources

• And finally, we'll create the two folders where Spring configuration files are ordinarily placed:

project_name/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/spring
