Thanks for the reply Ben - I had thought of deleting the unwanted reports, but as you pointed out, it leaves you with a nav-bar that doesn't match up to the distribution contents - and I don't know anything about xdoclet (yet - although I suspect I might have to learn!), so I wouldn't know where to start hacking that.
Anyway, it appears to be simply an "order of operation" problem. If I do a "maven clean" and then immediately follow that with a "maven dist:build", my distribution does not include the other docs - just API docs. So now I do a "clean" then "dist:build" and THEN "site:generate" and get everything I want. Thanks again. -----Original Message----- From: Steve Ovens [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, 20 June 2003 2:58 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Newbie - changing reports included in binary distribution Hi, I'm Maven-ising my first project and have a hopefully simple question concerning building distributions. When I do a "maven dist:build" everything works fine and it successfully produces a target/distributions/proj-1.1.0.zip file. The problem I have is that the zip file contains not only the proj-1.1.0.jar file and useful stuff like Javadocs - it also includes all of the other Maven-generated reports, such as metrics, checkstyle, change-logs. These are v. useful - and I want to generate them to publish to our internal team - I just don't really want them included in the binary distribution which is what would go to our customers. After reading through the Maven docco, I was thinking of putting a <pregoal> for the "dist:build-bin" goal, to de-register the reports I don't want - but I'm guessing (without looking at the source code) that this won't do me any good - because "dist:build-bin" doesn't actually create the reports - it just copies them. So, de-registering reports probably won't make a jot of difference to the output. It seems I need some way to trigger a re-generation of a different (smaller) set of reports before the dist:build-bin goal is executed, but I'm not sure how to go about this, or even if I'm on the right track - maybe there is an easier way... Anyone got any ideas/tips they can share???
