Grek,
The section titled "Creating a block" gives a maven command which
uses the deprecated goal "archetype:create" instead of
"archetype:generate"
1. Let's switch to interactive mode and provide archetype catalog...
2. Give up interactive mode completely and stick to utterly long
command...
The question is which one we prefer? What do you, dear users, think
about it?
I think I prefer option 1 as well.
I don't mind the interactivity as it helps beginners get it right first
time... especially if you give clear instructions in the tutorial about
what to answer at each prompt and what the answers mean. The Maven
manual page for this plugin [1] is more like I would expect to see in
the tutorial (although I'd definitely want the responses highlighted
though).
I can't believe that Maven attempts to list *every* archetype. That
list is going to get awfully long, very quickly.
Regards,
David Legg
