Establish generated-webresource convention similar to generated-sources
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MWAR-266
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MWAR-266
Project: Maven 2.x WAR Plugin
Issue Type: Wish
Reporter: Dietrich Schulten
For generated java sources there is a convention to use a target folder
generated-sources/[name of the generator]. The same applies to generated
resources.
Generator plugins are supposed to add their output results to the project
sources during the generate-sources and generate-resources phase.
Besides, the build-helper plugin allows to add src folders manually.
Netbeans relies on this convention to find additional sources and resources in
the IDE.
I wish there was a similar convention for generated webresources, e.g. for
generated faces configuration files as created by Openarchitectureware/MWE
(http://wiki.eclipse.org/Modeling_Workflow_Engine_%28MWE%29).
So here is my wish:
Everything below generated-webresources/[name of the generator] should be
included by the war plugin as additional webresource automatically. This would
allow IDEs like Netbeans to include generated webresources automatically.
