[forwarding to dev, as it is easier to discuss things on a mailing

One of the guys I am working with, Dima Loiko, started some work on
CAY-1181 Jira (again here we are dealing with the issue that I
raised before: people who are interested in working on Cayenne but
don't know English well enough to communicate on the list, resulting
in a very un-Apache under-the-radar activity. Anyways I don't know
how to overcome this problem now, so I will keep working as a
proxy)...
Perhaps an additional command line argument, or via a system
property? Definitely interested in getting a bit of discussion
going on this b/c having to constantly change the output folder is
starting to get old; I have an itch to scratch on this one.
I am +1 on creating an override for the default source generation
folder that can be used when starting from Maven. Maybe you can
handle the Maven side of things and Dima will pick it up on the
Modeler end? Let's just agree on the property name. Modeler
currently uses "cayenne.version" and "cayenne.build.date"
properties. Maybe "cayenne.cgen.destdir" ?
Happy to handle the maven side.
cayenne.cgen.destdir works for me.

Robert Zeigler commented on CAY-1181:
-------------------------------------
Now that CAY-1158 is fixed, it would be /really/ nice if the
modeler would pick up the appropriate java source directory
automatically. One way to do this would be to code logic directly
into the modeler that checks for a maven-like structure and
"guesses" at src/main/java. But I'm not necessarily keen on this
approach; true, src/main/java is /usually/ where the folder is, but
that's not written in stone. In the context of CAY-1158, where the
modeler is being loaded directly by maven, it would be nice to have
an external method of specifying the class generation folder.

Default class generation folder is wrong
----------------------------------------
Key: CAY-1181
URL: https://issues.apache.org/cayenne/browse/CAY-1181
Project: Cayenne
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Cayenne Core Library
Affects Versions: 3.0M5
Reporter: Andrus Adamchik
Assignee: Andrus Adamchik
Default class generation folder in the modeler (Tools > Generate
Classes > Output directory) is selected to be the folder where
cayenne.xml is stored. If a user changes it, it is not saved in
user preferences, so on the next attempt to generate classes the
old folder is shown.
Another related improvement: In a project that has Maven folder
layout, cayenne.xml is often is src/main/resources. In this case
we must select a default folder ot be src/mainjava (for "src/test/
resources" it should be src/test/java). I.e. we should be smarter
when we are dealing with predictable maven structures.
