-----------------------------------------
Summary: Clarify documentation around module.name and module.dir
Key: ARCHETYPE-457
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ARCHETYPE-457
Project: Maven Archetype
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Konrad Windszus
>From the reference at
>https://maven.apache.org/archetype/archetype-models/archetype-descriptor/archetype-descriptor.html#class_module
> is is unclear how the attribute name is evaluated. For me the following
>behaviour would make sense
- dir: the name of the source directory (from which the new module will be
created)
- name: the name of the module directory (destination). Usually is equivalent
to artifactId. Currently the name does not seem to be evaluated at all.
That way no placeholder replacement on the weird syntax __<property>__ would
need to take place on the dir entry, but rather that would just specify from
where to copy the files for the module (this can always be hardcoded). The
placeholder mechanism (i.e. the regular one with the $ syntax would then only
be necessary on id and name attributes.
