Re: Archetype creation w/ metadata
So, I've managed to fix my duplicated directory issue. Apparently I do not need fully qualified path's in my pom file like I thought I did. I still cannot get maven to recognize my archetype-metadata.xml file though. Thanks for your time!

Archetype creation w/ metadata
Hello folks! I hope this makes sense, as I'm about out of ideas as to how to go about getting my archetype to work as needed. I have two outstanding issues that I can't seem to squash. 1. When I use my archetype to make a project, I get an extra directory and I'm not sure how... Here's the resulting directory structure, when I create my app from /Users/mruno: test-app - pom.xml ^ src -- all the stuff under src is properly placed ^ Users - ^ mruno... and so on, to create an empty "resources" directory under /Users/mruno/test/src/main/resources and /Users/mruno/test/src/test/resources I've no idea how or why these two empty directories are being created. When I check out the archetype from / I do not get this directory, leading me to think it's some sort of path issue. 2. I need to ask the user for some input to customize the project before Velocity goes through and does its variable replacement. I've tried making an archetype-metadata.xml but it seems like this file is ignored. How can I make maven use that file? I have created an archetype.xml as well, and it seems to be used. I've attached both files here: --= archetype.xml =-- site-manager-app src/main/java/TestControl.java src/test/java/TestControlTest.java src/main/resources/build.properties src/main/resources/log4j.xml src/test/resources/build.properties src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/web.xml src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/spring-security.xml src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/spring-servlet.xml src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/freemarker/header.ftl src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/freemarker/login.ftl src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/freemarker/macros/library.ftl src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/freemarker/test.ftl --= archetype-metadata.xml =-- site-manager-app My Sample Application ./src/main/java **/*.java ./src/test/java **/*.java ./src/main/webapp/WEB-INF **/*.xml ./src/main/resources **/*.xml **/*.properties ./src/test/resources **/*.xml **/*.properties ./src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/freemarker *.ftl **/*.ftl I really appreciate your time and help! Forgive me if I'm making silly mistakes... so far as I can tell though, I'm not.
