Take a look at the Antlr plugin but generally you keep your grammar, or
IDL files in your case, in a separate directory and then your generated
sources can be output to a directory like ${basedir/target/idlgenerated
and then you can use the <addPath/> to hook in the sources. So you might
have something like this:
<preGoal name="java:compile">
<!--
Run JacORB performing any uptodate checks you want.
Your IDL is stored in ${basedir}/src/idl and this process
will output to ${basedir}/target/idlgenerated.
-->
<ant:path
id="maven.idl.compile.src.set"
location="${basedir}/target/idlgenerated"/>
<maven:addPath
id="maven.compile.src.set"
refid="maven.idl.compile.src.set"/>
</preGoal>
So before the java:compile goal is attained the above preGoal will be
attained which will generate your sources from IDL, then you create a
path for your generated sources and then add that path to the standard
'maven.compile.src.set' path reference and they will be picked up and
compiled along with your non-generated sources.
