Conditional archetype generation

[stephanos <ex...@gmx.net>]

Hi,

I need to know if I can use conditions in my archetype.

My use case:
I have an archetype that can be used in various languages (e.g. Java and
Groovy). I want to give the user the base class for the according language.
But I don't want to be both classes (MyClass.java & MyClass.groovy) there -
just one!

Is there a way to only generate one of the two files via maven:generate
depending on a condition/property?

I found a JIRA feature request for what I described. Although it's flagged
"fixed" I think there wasn't really any change there, at least I can't find
any documentation about it.

Cheers,
