[m2e-users] how to configure m2e to deal with generated source folder ?

[Cristiano Gavião <cvgaviao@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I would like to know how configure m2e to deal with alternative source folders and add them to build path.

I've setup the plugin below, but every time that I update the project it removes the source from the build path.

<plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
                <artifactId>build-helper-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                <executions>
                    <execution>
                        <phase>generate-sources</phase>
                        <goals>
                            <goal>add-source</goal>
                        </goals>
                        <configuration>
                            <sources>
                                <source>${project.build.directory}/src-gen</source>
                            </sources>
                        </configuration>
                    </execution>
                </executions>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>

thanks,

Cristiano
