Archetype create-from-project filename issue

[Alexander Broekhuis <a....@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

I have a project from which I create an archetype using the
create-from-project goal. This all works great, and I can make it work
without a need to change anything in the generated files.

However, now I am running into a problem where a file which has the same
name as a module (it is a multi-module project) is not created when using
the archetype. Looking in the generated-sources, I can see that file as
"__artifactId__.ext". I expected this file to show up in the created
project as "submodule.ext".

Is there something I am missing, and how can I fix this?

TiA!

To answer part of my own question..

In the generated archetype-metadata.xml, the problematic file is added with
its original name. So if it is "templateProjectModule.ext" in the project
on which the create-from-project is used, the file is added as
"__artifactId__.ext" in the generated-sources, but still named
"templateProjectModule.ext" in the metadata.

Changing the metadata to "__artifactId__.ext" makes it work as expected,
however, this requires a change to the generated output, which I was hoping
to prevent.

Is this a bug, or is this intentional, or am I simply doing something wrong?
