title: Using maven as build tool for Weblogic 10.3
body: <p>I am trying to setup Weblogic Server 10.3 (and Portal etc.) to use <a href="http://maven.apache.org/" rel="noreferrer">maven</a> as a build tool. I am trying to find a decent tutorial or documentation how to do this. There are some tutorials for older versions like 9.0, but there is little info for version 10.</p>
  
  <p>I am looking a way to build weblogic's ear file with maven. Are people actually doing this? Is using maven worth the trouble? </p>
  
  <p>I would like to use maven in order to have easier integration with continuous integration tools like <a href="http://hudson-ci.org/" rel="noreferrer">Hudson</a>.</p>
  
  <p>edit: There seems to be a way to export maven files directly <a href="http://edocs.bea.com/wlw/docs102/guide/ideuserguide/build/conMavenScript.html" rel="noreferrer">http://edocs.bea.com/wlw/docs102/guide/ideuserguide/build/conMavenScript.html</a>. But those files are simple wrappers for ant.</p>
