Ladislav Gazo commented on MGWT-76:
-----------------------------------
It is completely valid solution to have sources in -sources.jar included on the
classpath and not in one jar with classes (especially for commercial products
but also for the sake of separation) = so it is not a must it is maybe common
for helloworld examples. And in that case why it is problem to redirect from
-sources.jar to direct path of the project?
And you are still talking about IDE, but this is hosted mode that will not have
access to changed sources without rebuild! And that is the patch that should
provide hosted mode with direct path. I think you should reconsider your
decision because as you can see this is developers feature used in real world
and it doesn't alter maven's behaviour even it doesn't alter the behaviour when
you have not defined the path.
> Solution for multi module builds and hosted mode
> ------------------------------------------------

> Key: MGWT-76
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MGWT-76
> Project: Maven 2.x GWT Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 1.1, 2.0
> Reporter: Stefan Raubal
> Assignee: nicolas de loof
> Fix For: 2.0
>
> Attachments: dir_structure.txt, gwt-maven-plugin-MGWT-76.rev9744.patch

> The suggested improvement would ease rapid application development for multi
> module environments:
> The sources of referenced modules should be added to the hosted mode
> classpath instead of the JAR dependency (if the projects are referenced in a
> reactor build).
> The totsp plugin was preparing a solution for multi module builds that share
> the source folders directly. This sounded very promising and was discussed
> here:
> http://code.google.com/p/gwt-maven/issues/detail?id=149
> Nicolas stated correctly in a discussion that the manual configuration step
> used in the totsp patch has drawbacks and proposed a different solution:
> <quote>
> The use of some external XML file to setup "artifact" path as a project path
> is not very maven-compliant, as Maven likes all the config to be in POM. Such
> a feature could be nice but should be supported at maven-core level, not just
> inside a plugin.
> An better option COULD be to reuse code from maven-eclipse-plugin that scans
> the workspace for other maven project and automagically replaces artifacts
> reference with project references. This is a stronger approach : user don't
> have to configure it's path in some XML (that is user dependent, so it SHOULD
> not be stored in SVN and refered from POM) and the plugin code will check the
> candidate project matches the expected version to avoid missconfiguration.
