I'm in the midst of converting some fairly complex ant-based J2EE projects to Maven2. One thing I need to do is generate some Java source from some Flavor source files (http://flavor.sf.net) in the 'generate-sources' phase, so a Maven plugin for doing so seems the right course.
But here's the rub: the Flavor compiler -- the thing that turns *.fl files into *.java -- doesn't have a Java interface. It's a C++ executable. So I have two questions... 1) Can I distribute the Flavor executable with my plugin? I'm pretty sure the license allows it, but I don't understand the Maven mechanism for distributing plugin resources. 2) How do I reference the location of the exe (in order to invoke it) from the plugin when the generate-sources phase fires? Thanks so much! Jim --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
