Michael Osipov closed MPECLIPSE-70. ----------------------------------- Resolution: Won't Fix Project has been retired, closing as won't fix. > Make it possible to add linked resources > ---------------------------------------- > > Key: MPECLIPSE-70 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPECLIPSE-70 > Project: Maven 1.x Eclipse Plugin > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 1.9 > Reporter: Felipe Leme > Priority: Minor > Original Estimate: 1 hour > Remaining Estimate: 1 hour > > I have some projects that share some common Java files (in a ../common > directory) and I need to access that directory as a source tree (I know that > having multiple source directory is not the maven way of doing things, but > sometimes that's a need). > So, one way to do this is creating a folder on the project as a link to an > existing one in the filesystem (or to an Eclipse variable). If I do so on > Eclipse, it generates an entry like the following in .project: > <linkedResources> > <link> > <name>folder_A</name> > <type>2</type> > <location>FOLDER_VARIABLE_NAME</location> > </link> > <link> > <name>file_B</name> > <type>1</type> > <location>/folder/location/on/filesystem</location> > </link> > </linkedResources> > So, I think it would be nice to have a property (similar to what we have on > the natures element) to add such links. Something like this: > maven.eclipse.links=folderA, fileB > maven.eclipse.links.folderA.name=folder_A > maven.eclipse.links.folderA.type=2 > maven.eclipse.links.folderA.location=FOLDER_VARIABLE_NAME > maven.eclipse.links.fileB.name=file_B > maven.eclipse.links.fileB.type=1 > maven.eclipse.links.fileB.location=/folder/location/on/filesystem > Optional, we could eliminate the need for a type variable by using variable > or path: > maven.eclipse.links.folderA.name=folder_A > maven.eclipse.links.folderA.variable=FOLDER_VARIABLE_NAME > maven.eclipse.links.fileB.name=file_B > maven.eclipse.links.fileB.path=/folder/location/on/filesystem > <j:if test="${context.getVariable('maven.eclipse.links') != null}"> > <linkedResources> > <util:tokenize var="links" delim=","> > ${maven.eclipse.links} > </util:tokenize> > <j:forEach var="link" items="${links}" trim="true"> > <link> > <j:set var="name" value="maven.eclipse.links.${link}.name"/> > <j:set var="type" value="maven.eclipse.links.${link}.type"/> > <j:set var="location" value="maven.eclipse.links.${link}.location"/> > <name>${context.getVariable(name)}</name> > <type>${context.getVariable(link)}</type> > <location>${context.getVariable(location)}</location> > </link> > </linkedResources> > </j:if> > -- Felipe -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.6#6162)
