You must tell Maven what artifacts you want included in the Webapp. This is achieved by specifying a property in the POM, using the following syntax:
<dependency>
<groupId>grpId</groupId>
<artifactId>jarid</artifactId>
<version>jarversion</version>
<type>jar</type>
<properties>
<war.bundle>true</war.bundle>
</properties>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>grpId</groupId>
<artifactId>tldid</artifactId>
<version>tldversion</version>
<type>tld</type>
<properties>
<war.bundle>true</war.bundle>
</properties>
</dependency>
