in your patch) provides the same benefits as the maven.compile.src.set

the appropriate paths to the project.properties file: it may not be
obvious to the user which directory is holding the generated code, and
the directory may change from release to release of the plugin.  It
would be possible to work around this problem by expecting plugins to
append paths to the maven.compile.src.set property, but this would just
duplicate existing functionality (as mentioned, antlr and castor are
already appending paths to the path refid), and holding multiple paths
is really what path refids were intended for, I think, since they take
care of figuring out the path separator and so on.

I totally agree. Path sets seem superior in this regard to text properties. Maven even contains some jelly tags to help with path set manipulation if my memory servers me.


Is there any reason for using text properties? If not, how hard would it be to change Arnaud's recent contribution to user path sets instead?
