What's wrong with the above mvn command to generate the project? > > The artifact com.sun.xml.bind:jaxb is not a Maven archetype—just a regular > dependency of type JAR. ok, I see that if I download the pom. If I'm looking for an archetype of a particular type, how do I find it? Do all archetypes have "archetype" in the group or artifact name? >> 3. Pointers to how to convert a custom ant task into a maven goal? > > You can use the maven-antrun-plugin: > http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-antrun-plugin/ Thanks, that will help --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
