Jukka Zitting commented on JCR-116:
-----------------------------------

I believe that the IDE integration tools only look at the build/sourceDirectory 
element of project.xml. As Maven does not allow more than one source directory 
(they do have a good point for this), I unfortunately don't think that the 
configuration can be automated.

The generated sources are added to the internal Maven source path by the 
maven:addPath element in maven.xml of the attached patch. I don't know of any 
automated way to make the path externally visible.


> JavaCC grammar generation to ${maven.build.dir}/generated-src

>      Project: Jackrabbit
>         Type: Wish

> Currently the JavaCC grammars in src/grammar/{xpath,sql} are processed into 
> Java source files in src/java/org/apache/jacrabbit/core/query/{xpath,sql} 
> where we also have normal version controlled source files. This leads to the 
> need to maintain special svn:ignore properties and also the more general 
> issue of mixing manually written and automatically generated source files. 
> Because of this the "maven clean" command does not (at the moment) truly 
> restore your source tree to a "fresh checkout" state.
> I'm proposing (as a wish, you are free to disagree) that the JavaCC grammars 
> be generated into Java files within the Maven build directory. The attached 
> patch modifies the javacc maven goals to generate files into 
> ${maven.build.dir}/generated-src. The modified prepare-filesystem goal also 
> adds the generated source path ${maven.build.dir}/generated-src/main/java 
> into the maven compile set so that the generated sources are included in the 
> normal builds.
> PS. There are a couple of JavaCC generated files that have been intentionally 
> modified for Jackrabbit. The ant:delete commands at the end of the 
> jacrabbit:generate-*-parser goals specifically remove these generated files. 
> It would however be nicer if custom modifications would not be needed.
