----------------------------------------------------------------
ARCHETYPE-57 was never really resolved. As of alpha-4 and alpha-5 empty
directories are not included in the archetype JAR files. There seem to be two
issues:
1) -- Edit/clarification: Doesn't seem to be necessary.
2) The archetype archiver/JAR goal does not include empty directories unless
explicitly listed in the archetype-metadata.xml. You can't apply inclusion
wildcards, etc. The JAR mojo should include an includeEmptyDirs option.
Additionally, this will require code changes to:
archetype-common/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/archetype/DefaultArchetype.java
(maybe others as well?)
In particular the archiveArchetype and zipper routines to include empty
directories.
e.g. in zipper()
111 {
112 File[] files = currentSourceDirectory.listFiles();
113
114 for ( int i = 0; i < files.length; i++ )
115 {
116 if ( files[i].isDirectory() )
117 {
118 zipper( zos, offset, files[i] );
This area should have a check for if(includeEmptyDirs && files.length == 0) {
... add dir }

1) empty directories are not copied over into target/
This can be resolved by tweaking the resource plugin configuratioN:
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-resources-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>resources</id>
<goals>
<goal>resources</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<includeEmptyDirs>true</includeEmptyDirs>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
