I agree with Vicent that pre/post Goals should be not used by plugins.
At the moment common pratice is to have a maven.xml file with something
like:
<project>
<preGoal name="java:compile">
<attainGoal name="javacc"/>
</preGoal>
</project>
in it
and unfortunatly plugins like eclipse, javadocs etc. are not seeing yet that
there are seeing that some java sources were generated
We have dissussed this issue sometime ago and if I remember we were close to
agreeing that we should add to POM
a tag <generatedSourceDirectory> which can be used by all plugins.
Later on we can even think about adding other tags like <webSourceDirectory>
or <codeGenerator>
(e.g <codeGenerator>javacc</codeGenerator> or
<codeGenerator>xdoclet</codeGenerator>)
etc once we will be able disovered some common patters and generalize them.
In an case no change in POM structure is planned for 1.0 release.
