Renjith-- There is a way to do this. If you include the schema directory you have defined as a resource in your JAR, project2 can then depend on an artifact (project1). Once you've included that dependency, we're using the maven-dependency-plugin's goal of "unpack-dependencies" to extract those IDL files into a known directory. Once they've been extracted, you can depend on them at compile time and then delete that directory post generate-sources stage in your build.
