Though it is not exactly a best practice it is possible to filter the source "in place" using just a <resources> configuration similar to that posted (referencing src/main/java) - this would not require the buildhelper plugin.

Create a new directory (for example 'src/main/classtemplates') and put you class template under the correct package directory in there.

Then declare a additional resource in your pom:

  [...]
  <resources>
    <resource>
      <directory>src/main/classtemplates</directory>
      <filtering>true</filtering>
      <targetPath>target/generated-sources</targetPath>
    </resource>
  </resources>
  [...]

and use the buildhelper-maven-plugin from mojo.codehaus.org to declare the additional source directory, so the compile plugin picks it up:

  [...]
  <plugin>
    <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
    <artifactId>build-helper-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <executions>
      <execution>
        <id>add-source</id>
        <phase>process-resources</phase>
        <goals>
          <goal>add-source</goal>
        </goals>
        <configuration>
          <sources>
            <source>target/generated-sources</source>
          </sources>
        </configuration>
      </execution>
    </executions>
  </plugin>
  [...]

How is this done? Can you please give an example. I can not get it working
using filtering java files like filtering resources.

You could configure the filtering to filter your java code as well as standard resources, though I don't know if that is what you want.

Hi list,

for some time now I've been looking for a easy way to generate a simple class containing version information of our artifact. I know that it is possible to filter resources. But to avoid any resource loading issues I would like maven to generate such a class. Does anyone have a idea how to solve this? I'm sure that using resource filtering of a specific class template and then attaching the generated source(-folder) using the build-helper- maven-plugin, but is this a elegant way?

thanks

Francois
