Doesn't

help you?
Have you had a look at

already?

Re: Very newbie question
Posted by Wayne Fay <wa...@gmail.com>.
The question was really directed to the original poster, ichasco.
I have seen other people new to Maven who seem to believe that they
must create archetypes themselves manually rather than simply reusing
the existing archetypes.
I want to make sure that ichasco is not heading down the wrong path.
People who are new to Maven generally should not be creating
archetypes.

One application of it for me was a multi-project layout for an EAR with a
myfaces web application, EJB3, a persistence archive, a custom login module,
skeleton config files, etc. It's helpful if you create several projects
using the same pattern.

Re: Very newbie question

Just curious, why do you think you need to CREATE an archetype? Most
people will simply USE an archetype that has been previously created.
"mvn archetype:create ..." is simply the command to create a new
project using an archetype. I'd be very surprised that a new user
would want to create an archetype.
What exactly are you hoping to do with Maven2?

An archetype is installed the same way as a normal artifact; so running 'mvn
install' in the directory will do it.
In case you haven't seen it, this guide to creating archetypes helped me
along: http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-creating-archetypes.html
