Hello, I'm somewhat confused. I'm following Raphael's work closely as the current archetype doens't allow me to create a reasonable archetype(s) for netbeans platform based apps. I've been able to do so with archetypeng seamlessly. However "creating archetype from any project" sounds a bit over the top to me. The primary goal of archetype is to create projects based on archetypes. That's what should be dead simple. Creating archetypes shall be also simple but I would not rate it as a primary goal of the codebase.
Thanks, The create-from-project feature is an enterprise feature. Some people defines a sample project using some dedicated plugin usage, then create an archetype from that project then all devs a that enterprise starts new projects using the archetype :) The create feature is the main feature and seems to work for now but using the new maven-archetype packaging, i have broken the selection of an archetype feature based on repository metadatas. I think a first class feature is to propose the user a list of archetypes to create a project from. this way the user don't have to remember the exact archetype groupId, artifactId and version :) Regards Raphaël my 2 cents.
