m2 generate-sources goal
All,
How does the generate-sources goal work. Are there
elements in the pom that can affect what is generated?
For example I am trying to generate java code from
idl files, does this mean I can use the
generate-sources goal and somehow specify in my pom
which idl compiler to use and what files to use. If so
which elements actually control this behaviour. Or
does this require a plugin to be written.
Thank you
Sid

Thank you,
You're example makes it perfectly clear what I need to
do. I was confusing the phase with a goal.
Thanks
Sid

Hi Sid,
you would require a plugin that maven can execute during the
generate-sources step of the lifecycle.
You would configure your plugin into your pom a bit like this for xdoclet:
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-xdoclet-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>generate-sources</phase>
<goals>
<goal>xdoclet</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<tasks>
<ejbdoclet>ejbdoclet stuff</ejbdoclet>
</tasks>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
Check out the docs on the maven website about writing plugins, which is
where you would do your code generation.
