Is there any particular and good reason why you want to change it?
By using this setting, it is easier to be the 'lone gunman' on a project using maven, while the rest 'still' uses ant.
Isn't it better to use what everybody else is using?
That is what everybody keeps telling me when I say I use maven and they use ant. The one strength of maven I liked is that it is easy to tailor into conforming to an existing (ant) build. One of these things is the maven.build.dir. On a number of occasions I've transformed this into 'build' instead of 'target'.
BTW, I haven't found any plugins yet who ignore this setting. The following are the ones I use regularly:
- eclipse - xdoc - site
- java - jar - war
- ear - artifact - test
- clover - simian - multiproject
- javadoc - dist - createjarbundle
- changes - faq - scm

Yes, maven.build.dir is exactly what I was looking for. Sorry for bothering you with a RTFM question. I had somehow overseen it (not yet fully waken up, I suppose ;-)
Thanks, Gisbert
Hey
I think it won't be that wise to change it.
I bet it is so commonly used now that some plugins may have hardcoded paths
which are using target directory.
Is there any particular and good reason why you want to change it? Isn't it better to use what everybody else is using?
