I'm not sure what you plan on doing with the information, are you able to elaborate? The standard directories layout http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-standard-directory-layout.html lists what you are looking for. It's just as quick to visually inspect them. And the only way to know if they are using non-standard directories would be if the pom defined those non-standard directories, otherwise maven wont know about them. I guess the tool could also help you migrate to the standard layout... --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
