Changing maven-war-plugin output directory

If you pack your project using maven war plugin, eg: using command: (
mvn war:war


The default output directory is:
./war

Sometimes we want to change the output directory to:
./src/main/webapp

Following are the pom.xml configuration examples:

 <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>2.0</version>
                <configuration>
                    <warName>your-war-name</warName>
                    <outputDirectory>src/main/webapp</outputDirectory>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
