Complete pom.xml for stormpath Web App with Java Servlet, JSP - stormpath

Question

There is a tutorial for stormpath (online user management). The pom.xml that is provided at https://stormpath.com/blog/java-webapp-instant-user-management#maven is a bit confusing.
pom.xml
4.0.0
com.stormpath.samples
stormpath-webapp-tutorial
0.1.0
war
com.stormpath.sdk
stormpath-servlet-plugin
1.0.RC3.1
javax.servlet
javax.servlet-api
3.0.1
provided
javax.servlet
jstl
1.2
ch.qos.logback
logback-classic
1.0.13
runtime
org.apache.tomcat.maven
tomcat7-maven-plugin
2.2
/
What kind of pom structure should this be? How would the complete and working pom.xml look like?

Answer 1

I am Stormpath's Java Developer Evangelist.
This section is in error in the blog. We are currently fixing it. I'll let you know when it's updated.
In the meantime, if you clone the Stormpath Java SDK at https://github.com/stormpath/stormpath-sdk-java.git, there's a fully functional servlet example in the examples/servlet folder. This has the proper pom.xml in it.
To build, you should be able to run:
mvn clean install
in the root folder of the project.
You can then drop examples/servlet/target/stormpath-sdk-examples-servlet-1.0.0.RC-SNAPSHOT.war into the container (like Tomcat) of your choice.
Feel free to drop us a line at: support#stormpath.com if you run into any trouble with this.

I ended up using this in my tutorial example. It works for me. Just add the <dependencies> part to the already existing default pom.xml of your project. Save the pom.xml and it will automatically download a bunch of .jar to your Libraries/Maven Dependencies.
