You will create a folder at
${basedir}/target/generated-resources/mypluginname/
You will put your generated file in that directory
You will add that directory to the project's list fo resource directories
You will find the above solution is the maven way.Putting generated things in folders which are not sub-folders of target is not the maven way. -Stephen On 3 December 2010 14:35, fhomasp <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hey, > > I was working on a Mojo on which I thought would be a trivial problem. > Though it turns out it's not. > > I simply want to add a property file during the phase "generate-resources" > with the current version, on the classpath.
