maven archetype: archetype-metadata.xml ..?

[Nino Saturnino Martinez Vazquez Wael <ni...@jayway.dk>]

Hi

Im trying to build a archetype that has the following structure:

parent
|
|-subproject
|-subproject

Im using the new way of doing this by the archetype-metadata.xml and 
modules, but I am a bit uncertain about the structure for the modules, 
they should have the archetype structure aswell, right?

I mean they should them selfes contain archetype-metadata.xml in the 
meta-in/maven?

Are there any tutorials on this, I could find any and the maven wiki on 
this aren't that informational.

nope, there is only one archetype-metadata.xml file per archetype jar.
modules are defined in that metadata.

Just try mvn archetpe:create-from-project on your project and give a
look at the target/generated-sources/archetype directory.
please consider, this goal stil in development.

You can find some documentation at
