Config File Consistency

2009-03-30 Thread dutchman_mn
Hello all:

I am working in a Maven multi-project environment and I would like to maintain 
some consistency across projects for some tools like CheckStyle, FindBugs, etc. 
 In order to do this, I am thinking of using the remote resource plugin.  
However, the documentation states that the files from the resource bundle is 
deposited in the $basedir/target/classes directory.  However, I would like it 
deposited in the $basedir/some_arbitrary_location directory?  Can I configure 
the directory where the files are deposited or am I off in the weeds and there 
is an easier way?

Thank you,

Perry Hoekstra

Jeff:

If it was a single file (ie. CheckStyle) I would have most likely gone down the 
URL route.  However, I have multiple configuration files (CheckStyle, PMD, 
FindBugs, testing, etc) so I would like it all as single dependency.  If I go 
down the *.jar route, it works for CheckStyle but does not seem to work for 
other plug-ins.  That is why I was looking for a solution that would allow a 
*.jar file to be pulled from a repository and explode to a defined directory.  
All of the plug-ins have an option to point to a given directory for 
configuration files.  I can do it through the Ant plug-in (unzip) but I was 
trying to find a pure Maven solution first.

 Hi Perry,
   
 
 Typically, I have used the configuration options of the 
 tool, such as
 specifying the config file via a URL with Checkstyle.  I 
 have also
 bundled them together a separate project, deployed that 
 jar, and made
 it a dependency of the projects.  This works when the 
 respective tool
 can can load the config file via the classpath.
