Re : Re : Generate source code with a JavaCC parser.

[Julien HENRY <he...@yahoo.fr>]

Finally, it works with another module. I just have to use the javacc plugin in the generate-sources phase of this new module. In the module where I want to generate source, I use the exec plugin to run the Parser.
The only problem is I have to generate the new source file in src/main/java because I have no way to specify a second source directory in the pom (for example target/generated-sources).

Thanks !

Thanks for the reply. 

I'm currently have a multi-module layout. Could it be possible to put the parser in a new module? The problem I see is the Parser.jar should be installed in the local repository before the generate-sources phase of the module that need it to generate the .java file.
Actually, I'm looking for a way to build the whole project with only one command (easier for continuum). With your solution, I need to build and install the parser first, then build my regular project.

Thanks again.

To my eyes (and how I've done it before), this would be two projects. One project to create the Parser and jar it. Then the second project would use that jar as a dependency and execute the appropriate class during the generate-sources phase.

Or you could get a little fancy and have the first project actually generate a Maven plugin with the Parser and then bind that plugin appropriately in the second project.

Hope that helps.
