Thank you. That looks pretty close to what I was looking for. (The perfect solution would not involve modifying the pom and could therefore be used with any arbitrary project. But this might be manageable. Thanks.)

If you want the compiled classes and test classes to be placed in the same directory, you may extend the pom fragment to <build> <directory>${directory}</directory> <outputDirectory>${directory}/classes</outputDirectory> <testOutputDirectory>${directory}/test-classes</testOutputDirectory> </build> <properties> <directory>target</directory> </properties> To clean just issue something like mvn -Ddirectory=tmp clean Hope this works for you. -Lester Christopher Cobb wrote: >I would occasionally like to put my jar file in a different directory.
