Compiling LESS CSS with Maven and m2e-wtp

I'm trying to compile LESS CSS files with lesscss-maven-plugin, both in pure maven (with command line) and within Eclipse (Juno).

In the lesscss-maven-plugin, I need to define an output directory, but I noticed that in Eclipse WTP copies files from target/m2e-wtp in my server (JBoss), but that this directory is ignored by the war plugin of Maven.

I succeeded to reach my goal with Maven profiles : in Eclipse I use a m2e profile configured in Project settings, so I can define two different destination folders depending on I build in Eclipse or not.

Here is my pom.xml :

                    </configuration>
                    <executions>
                        <execution>
                            <goals>
                                <goal>compile</goal>

                </plugin>
            </plugins>
        </build>
    </profile>
</profiles>

This works, but is there a better way to do this, without the profile trick ?

I found another solution with a different less compiler : wro4j. With this compiler, both exists maven and m2e plugins. In addition, a tutorial (for building boostrap) can be found here: m2e-wro4j
