Description

Can a tag called <generatedSourceDirectory> or <usesGeneratedSources /> be added into the build element of project.xml?

The function of this is to let plugins like xdoclet know where to put its generated source files.

Also for eclipse plugin to add the generated sources into the .classpath file

Oh ya, if you decide to use the has generated source. I was hoping it will have the a variable (something like pom.uses.generated.sources) set to "true"

Also if the directory is specified, it should also set the variable above.

Maybe this should be generalized to include generated resources too.
It is quite common to generate configuration files (ie. hibernate, castor) or java files (specially people working with j2ee).

won't fix for m1. There may be a common property, but not a pom element.

I believe it exists in m2. (POMv4)
