If that is the case then I don't see the need for it before there actually is a file to put in there…? Empty directories is a broken window. What would be more fun is that forge would actually remember the last package name used for a command so it would offer it as default (Lincoln - did you get that properties/config stuff in place ? :) There is a mechanism for this. I'm using it in the Arquillian Extensions plugin. JavaSourceFacet#getBasePackage() That's the one that was entered at the prompt...at least it appears that way. I don't think that creating the directories is necessarily wrong. If they open the project in the IDE immediately after creating it, then the first time they create a class it's necessary to retype the package name. It's far easier to right click on an existing package structure and create a new class. Perhaps the user can be prompted for this option (or it can be an optional option). new-project --named myproject --topLevelPackage org.example.myproject --createPackages -Dan -- Dan Allen Principal Software Engineer, Red Hat | Author of Seam in Action Registered Linux User #231597 http://www.google.com/profiles/dan.j.allen#about http://mojavelinux.com http://mojavelinux.com/seaminaction _______________________________________________ forge-dev mailing list forge-dev(a)lists.jboss.org https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/forge-dev
