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)
