Thanks Kenney,
I'll probably stick with the second option. I need the
compileSourceRoots later so that I can package sources using the
maven-source-plugin. I was just hoping some magical sequence in
components.xml would do the trick.
I'm compiling to native binaries. However, I don't deploy native
binaries for reuse; I just deploy the source code for reuse in other
projects. Compiling to Java bytecode would be much cooler, but I don't
think there exists a compile for that. Deploying native code is just one
big mess. I try to avoid it.
