[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-9822) Allow project examples to be created in a user-defined location

Allow project examples to be created in a user-defined location --------------------------------------------------------------- Key: JBIDE-9822 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-9822 Project: Tools (JBoss Tools) Issue Type: Feature Request Components: maven, project-examples Affects Versions: 3.3.0.M3 Reporter: Fred Bricon Assignee: Snjezana Peco Fix For: 3.3.0.M4 In the wake of JBIDE-9368, we want to be able to let the user kickstart new projects from Maven Archetypes (for starters). Kickstart/Quickstart projects, as opposed to project examples, are meant to be actually used by users, i.e. added to SCM, as sub modules to existing maven projects; Problem is, if we choose to use Archetype-based project examples (and I think we should), projects are generated under *<workspace>/.JBossToolsMavenProjects/* We should be able to change that location, to use the workspace root (or another directory) for example. That means we should change the IImportProjectExample interface to add setLocation(IPath path)/IPath getLocation() methods (or something else) We need to make sure these projects can be added as maven sub modules. Also, we must make sure the delete existing example stuff doesn't impede this feature (see JBIDE-9821)
