[richfaces-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (RF-13276) Optimized resources should be generated into generated-resources

[Brian Leathem (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-13276?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12823694#comment-12823694 ] 

Brian Leathem commented on RF-13276:
------------------------------------

Ideally we would generate the resources in the _generate-resources_ phase.  And copy them in the _process-resources_.  However we cannot generate the optimized resources until after the _GenerateResourcesMain_ class has been compiled.

To resolve this chicken/egg problem, I have split the _build-helper-maven-plugin_ execution into 2 parts.  The first continues to copy all non-resources sources in the _process-resources_ phase, and the second copies the resource sources in the _process-classes_ phase.  Not ideal, but it works.

Note: this solution requires the maven plugin execution order to be deterministic, as we have 2 plugins executing in the same phase.  This is expected to be true for maven >= 3.0.3 (MNG-2258).  If however the plugin execution does turn out to be none-deterministic (due to some outstanding bug) we can move the resource optimisation execution to a later maven phase.

> The execution of org.richfaces.resource.optimizer.GenerateResourcesMain places the generated resources directly into the _target/classes_ folder.  Rather, the generated resources should be placed into _target/generated-resources_.
