writing a maven plugin

[Roy van der Kuil <ro...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

I am in the progress of updating a maven plugin for UIC (uic.sf.net) which I
use in the company I work for very often. It's goal is to convert
qt-designer files (*.ui) into java files using the UICcompiler. So far so
good. My problem is that currently it writes the generated java files into
the src/main/java directory and I would like that to be the
target/generated-sources/uic. This would solve some problems I have
(cleaning up generated java files of ui files that no longer exist for
example).
I managed to change the output directory but the problem is maven compile
doesn't notice these java files. Is there something I need to change as
well?

Kind regards
Roy

Hi,

you need to add the directory as an additional source directory to the 
pom. So in your mojo you need to do something like this:

   project.addCompileSourceRoot( dir );
