Thanks Martin. I've looked through all 3 parts, but can't find any details
on passing custom paramters to the archetype.
E.g. in my generated code if I want to be able to substitute ${myProperty},
I can't figure out how to supply this to Maven via the command line, e.g:
mvn archetype:generate -DarchetypeGroupId=%ARCHETYPE_GROUPID%
-DarchetypeArtifactId=%ARCHETYPE_ARTIFACTID%
-DarchetypeVersion=%ARCHETYPE_VERSION% -DgroupId=%GROUPID%
-DartifactId=%MODULE_PREFIX%%MODULE_NAME%
-Dpackage=%PACKAGE_PREFIX%%MODULE_NAME_PACKAGE% -Dversion=%VERSION%
-DmyProperty=test
However, if I use M2Eclipse there is a section for specifying the archetype
parameters including a list of custom name/value parameters. If I use this
section to specify, e.g. myProperty=test then the project is generated with
this value correctly substituted.
Thanks again,
Steve.
