[jira] Issue Comment Edited: (MECLIPSE-422) Cannot specify a
separate output directory for test classes when custom buildOutputDirectory
set

----------------------------------------------------------------------
buildOutputDirectory is useless; I can't think of a scenario in which one would want to mix test- and non-test folders, but it seems like the plugin was designed that way, according to this comment in EclipsePlugin.java:
// If using the standard output location, don't mix the test output into it.
A possible workaround:
Specify the output directory at the project level under /project/build, for example, like this:
<outputDirectory>WebContent/WEB-INF/classes</outputDirectory>
And don't specify buildOutputDirectory - the eclipse plugin will automatically use the default outputDirectory for non-test classes only.
Note For a web app, also specify correct webapp path under /project/build/plugins/plugin[artifactId="maven-war-plugin"]/configuration, like this:
<warSourceDirectory>WebContent</warSourceDirectory>

> Components: Core : Dependencies resolution and build path
> Affects Versions: 2.5
> Reporter: Mark Hobson

> As soon as buildOutputDirectory is set to a non-default value the output directories for all source folders are the same. It should be possible to specify a buildTestOutputDirectory to separate main and test classes, as is the default behaviour when buildOutputDirectory is not set.
