eclipse下使用tomcat启动maven项目

最近学习使用maven，建立了一个maven项目使用eclipse下tomcat启动时报错：

同时，若在eclipse中右键export导出war包时，会发现war包中没有maven管理的lib包。

这是由于没有将maven包配置为可导出造成的。需要打开.classpath文件，找到

<classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.m2e.MAVEN2_CLASSPATH_CONTAINER" />

　改为

<classpathentry export="true" kind="con" path="org.eclipse.m2e.MAVEN2_CLASSPATH_CONTAINER">
	<attributes>
		<attribute name="org.eclipse.jst.component.dependency" value="/WEB-INF/lib"/>
	</attributes>
</classpathentry>

　如果元素中已有其他attribute，则直接在<attributes>下面增加<attribute name="org.eclipse.jst.component.dependency" value="/WEB-INF/lib"/>即可。
