Description

I'm lacking the possibility to be able to generate a real multimodule application i.e. an ear containing both a web module and an ejb module with java sources.

I know it is possible to list all classes as a <resource>, however when doing so I can't get the packageName to automatically be prepended to the java files path (src/main/java/<package>/.../App.java).

What it means is that I'd like to be able to mark the java files as source files also when doing multiple modules generations.

Also somewhat related to this...

How about creating Java sources in different subpackages such as ${package}\model or ${package}\web ?

I've modified archetype-core and archetype-plugin to provide this functionality for our projects. I'll attache the code I modified to get this to work. Here's an example of a multi-module archetype.xml:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<archetype xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/Archetype/1.0.0">
  <id>archetype-webservice</id>
  <modules>
    <module>
      <dir>api</dir>
      <sources>
        <source>src/main/java/readme.txt</source>
      </sources>
    </module>
    <module>
      <dir>impl</dir>
      <sources>
        <source>src/main/java/readme.txt</source>

John, this looks like a good change (including using modello), but the attached files are only part of the picture, and the plugin has changed since 1 Feb. I don't have time to manually implement this for the 1.0-alpha-4 version, but I'm sure Jason will add similar functionality to the next version.

I see that ARCHETYPE-33 is said to supercede this issue, but I can't see whether it has been released as the new archetype plugin. Any idea when this might happen? I'd love to provide a multi module maven archetype for our projects and at this stage am unable to.
