Restore the ability to "package" non-Java resources
---------------------------------------------------
Key: ARCHETYPE-65
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ARCHETYPE-65
Project: Maven Archetype
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Creator
Affects Versions: 1.0-alpha-4
Reporter: Wendy Smoak
Attachments: archetype-resource-package-interpolation.patch
Some time ago, the Archetype plugin lost the ability to "package" non-Java
resources. The change was committed in April '06, so it would have first
appeared in 1.0-alpha-4.

PROTECTED]
Prior to this change, you could put non-Java files in the <sources> element,
for example
<source>src/main/resources/App.properties</source>
and
mvn archetype:create ... -DgroupId=com.example
would result in
src/main/resources/com/example/App.properties
Now, you get an error saying: "Template 'App.properties' is not in directory
src/main/java."
One way to fix this is to roll back the changes from lines 682-705 in r390971:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/maven/archetype/trunk/maven-archetype/maven-archetype-core/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/archetype/DefaultArchetype.java?r1=390965&r2=390971&diff_format=h
However if I'm reading the changes right, that will break the ability to have
"sub packages".
Maybe we need to leave <sources> alone, and have both <resources> and
<packagedResources> ?
There is an example project (based on the quickstart archetype) in the sandbox.
It includes App.properties as described above.
