James Roper commented on ARCHETYPE-455: --------------------------------------- I was thinking... I know, I could do my part and implement this myself! Then I saw a patch was already attached 3 years ago, with no review or response from the maintainers in that time. Willingness to contribute to this open source project is futile. > Flexible Modulename > ------------------- > > Key: ARCHETYPE-455 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARCHETYPE-455 > Project: Maven Archetype > Issue Type: Wish > Components: Generator > Reporter: Michael Kopf > Attachments: archetype-common-flex-module-name.patch, > archetype-multi-module-project-1.1.jar > > > I have to create a multi-module project from maven-archetype with free > configurable modulenames. This should be possible with required properties in > the archetype. > Up to now this is only possible with artifactId or rootArtifactId and you > have to use it in form of prefix__rootArtifactId__postfix for the module > directory. > What I want is to set a required property while setting up the new project > with the archetype. Within the archetype you have to configure the module > with directory __yourproperty__ and in the archetype-metadata.xml the module > entry like as follows: > {code} > <module id="${yourproperty}" dir="__yourproperty__" name="${yourproperty}"> > {code} > I made a patch which works for me. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
