> Use velocity expressions in path names

>
> Key: ARCHETYPE-398
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARCHETYPE-398
> Project: Maven Archetype
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Plugin
> Affects Versions: 2.2
> Reporter: Nicolas Dupont
> Priority: Major
>
> In required properties in an archetype descriptor, you can use expressions
> such as :
> {code:xml}<requiredProperty key="className">
> <defaultValue>${rootArtifactId.substring(0,1).toUpperCase()}${rootArtifactId.substring(1)}</defaultValue>
> </requiredProperty>{code}
> But you can't in a path name (e.g. you can't name a folder as
> {{\_\_rootArtifactId.substring(1)\_\_}}).
> For such a case, another solution would be the ability to store a hidden
> value (not visible by the user who generates a project) in the Velocity
> context and to able to use it in a path name (e.g. define somewhere
> MyFolderName as rootArtifactId.substring(1) and then use
> {{\_\_MyFolderName\_\_}} as a folder name).
