Hello SpringMVC folks,
Many times I wanted to jump start a quick spring based webapp to either test out some test cases, or helping someone in the forums. I tried appfuse and found it not simple enough, so I created my own tool and would like to share with you.

You may download it from http://code.google.com/p/javasupport/wiki/DownloadsHome and unzip it to your root of filesystem (e.g /opt/javasupport)

You need to have maven build tool installed, and here is an example on how you would use it:
$ /opt/javasupport/bin/template.sh create-webapp-spring myspring
$ cd myspring
$ mvn jetty:run
Now open browser to http://localhost:8080/myspring and you will see your webapp running!

If you use Eclipse WTP, you can setup your environment by following here:

Hope this is useful to you all.
