Hi All,
I see TBD next to "Generate a sub module from an archetype" at http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-archetype-plugin. Is "TBD" for implementation or documentation?

Is it possible to control the files created in a sub-module? Is it also possible to sync the content in the files based on meta-data (generated property files)? Is there any example archetype to demonstrate the functionality?

How to invoke archetype plug-in from a program? Is it possible to invoke from another plug-in? example snippet would help

I have searched in "glassfish users group", but did not find any help on archetype

Regards
Murali

More details of Maven Archetype Plugin can be found in :
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-archetype-plugin/examples/generate-alternative-catalog.html

Also Archetype Plugin can be used to Create an Archetype with a property
file :

Are you suggesting "glassfish users group" is the right forum for this?

could be accomplished by accepting user input data thru screens usually
served by TC or GF or OAS within web framework such as Struts or JSF
a plain CRUD webapp would accomplish the objective
if you persist to individual properties files you could create archetype
from the properties files

please ping glassfish users group (us...@glassfish.dev.java.net) for
configuration/deployment details

Subject: archetype plug-in vs custom plug-in
To: users@maven.apache.org

Hi All,
While searching through mailing list I found "archetypes to add files to
an existing project",
http://www.nabble.com/Using-Archetypes-to-Add-to-an-Existing-Project-(Maven-2)-ts1274662.html#a1274662
This message is at least 3 years old, did this feature evolve?

This feature might help in my work. I need to generate/add artifact(s) to
a module based on the meta data user configures.

I like to define an archetype to generate multi-module project, when
project is created from this archetype it creates parent project with POM file and meta data/configuration file. Meta data in configuration file determine number of submodules, and artifacts created in the parent project.

Let us look at my request using an example. maven-archetype-j2ee-simple creates JavaEE multi module project with sub modules ear, ejbs, servelets etc. by default all the sub-modules are empty. I need little variation of it, like to generate configuration file in src\main\resources. This file is
edited/configured by user, configuration is input to create/edit/add
artifacts to sub-modules.

Does archetype plug-in help? or shall I write my own plug-in?

Regards
Murali
