Hi Jim,
I just would like to thank you, it has helped to solve my problem :)
This was what I had in mind but I didn't know how to actually do it, thanks
to your solution I could have the job done.
Kind regards,
David

I had the same issue with schema files. I wanted to find a more elegant
solution using zip files or the assembly plugin, but all fell short of
what I really wanted. I got the job done with the following, but will be
watching this thread for a better solution.
I ...
a) packaged the reusable files into a jar artifact
b) unjar only the files I needed out of the artifact using the Ant unjar
task and maven-antrun-plugin.
It worked except referencing the assembly from within the Ant code was
not as clean as I'd like.
//declare dependency
<!-- get a copy of the ddl -->
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>generate-sources</phase>
<configuration>
<tasks>
<unjar
dest="${basedir}/target/schema"
overwrite="true">
<fileset dir="${user.home}/.m2/repository">
<include name="**/schemaBook-${pom.version}*.jar"/>
</fileset>
<patternset>
<include name="**/*.ddl"/>
</patternset>
</unjar>
</tasks>
</configuration>
<goals>
<goal>run</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
