sourceDirectory is the path to your java src file. It is relative to your project directory (ie where project.xml is). <sourceDirectory>src/main/java</sourceDirectory>
Nicolas, Ben Anderson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 17/09/2004 14:24 Veuillez répondre à "Maven Users List" Pour : [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc : Objet : stupid newbie After perusing through maven's website for the thousandth time I've decided now is the time for me to switch from ant. Unfortunately, I've been unable to crawl so far, let alone walk. I don't know if I'm not understanding the documentation or if it's just lacking. I also have searched through the mail-archive (although my preferred marc.theaimsgroup.com does not have this list?) My initial build should be simple. I just want to compile and jar up some source files - that should be simple, right? Here's my pom: <?xml version="1.0"?> <project default="jar:jar"> <pomVersion>3</pomVersion> <groupId>medamerica</groupId> <artifactId>ltc</artifactId> <name>medamerica</name> <currentVersion>1</currentVersion> <build> <sourceDirectory>MedAmerica_Working</sourceDirectory> </build> </project> so, then I run: $ maven jar:jar __ __ | \/ |__ _Apache__ ___ | |\/| / _` \ V / -_) ' \ ~ intelligent projects ~ |_| |_\__,_|\_/\___|_||_| v. 1.0-rc3 <pomVersion>3</pomVersion><groupId>medamerica</groupId><artifactId>ltc</artifactId><name>medamerica</name><currentVersion>1</currentVersion><build><sourceDirectory>MedAmerica_Working</sourceDirectory></build>build:start: java:prepare-filesystem: java:compile: [echo] Compiling to d:\vss\src/target/classes [echo] No java source files to compile. resources or todir was null java:jar-resources: test:prepare-filesystem: test:test-resources: test:compile: [echo] No test source files to compile. test:test: [echo] No tests to run.

Total time: 3 seconds Finished at: Fri Sep 17 08:19:21 EDT 2004 I'm running this from cygwin, so I can cut and paste, but I get the same output from regular DOS prompt. Sorry, for the simplicity of this question. If you can at least point me in the right direction to learning...
