Deploying a war to tomcat server with maven 1.1

does anyone know a way to configure a maven goal to deploy to a tomcat server after a build is run? I know that this is possible using the maven-tomcat-plugin but it looks as though as this only works for Maven 2 whereas I'm using Maven 1.1

I'm currently trying to set up Hudson so this would be part of my continuous intergration phase which I hope will run like this:

1. Build all necessary components
2. Build war and deploy to (local) server
3. Run selenium tests

Any help with this would be much appreciated.

Thanks.

I've figured out that best way to do this - its actually pretty easy to write a maven goal to transfer the war. The goal could be written as follows:

<goal name="deployWar" prereqs="buildWar">

    <echo message="+---------------------------------------------------+" />
    <echo message="installing war file to server" />
    <echo message="+---------------------------------------------------+" />

    <j:set var="deploy.dir" value="${server}/webapps" />

    <copy file="${maven.build.dir}/${pom.artifactId}.war"
        todir="${deploy.dir}" overwrite="true" />
</goal>

The server variable can be determined in your project.properties file. Also be sure to specify that a pre-requisite to build the WAR before you try to deploy it. Hope this helps someone!
