Avoid Build folder when creating EAR/WAR
I am trying to create an EAR for my project using Maven2. Its creating EAR
properly but i guess it initialy creates an EAR folder in my ${basedir} and
then EARs it from there. How can i get this folder deleted after the EAR is
created? I am facing the same issue while creating a WAR project as well,
but creating my JAR projects does not have this issue. My EAR pom xml looks
like this. Hope I am clear here.
<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"

Re: Avoid Build folder when creating EAR/WAR
Posted by RobJac <ro...@caritor.com>.
Thanks Wayne. I undertand its trivial but was just trying to avoid
redundancy. I downloaded the ant-run-plugin. Could you please let me know
how can i get this folder removed immediately after executing mvn package. I
tried providing the following under my pom xml
<artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>generate-sources</phase>
<configuration>
<tasks>
<delete dir="${project.build.directory}"/>
</tasks>
</configuration>
<goals>
<goal>run</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
but here it was trying to delete even before the packaging had started. I
see a <phase> , should i specify something here so that it will delete the
folder only after packaging?

You can use the antrun plugin to perform random tasks at specific
times of the build process.
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-antrun-plugin/usage.html
I'd create a task to delete that folder using ant immediately after
packaging things up, I suppose. However, this is such a trivial issue
(at least to me), that I would probably just ignore it.
