Overwrite archetypes in Maven
- by Random
Hello again!
I'm having some trouble using Maven for my archetypes and I will need to overwrite some. I launch an instruction that does an archetype:generate in an archetype already existing directory.
Is there a parameter that let's me overwrite existing archetypes?
I have search the maven definitve guide but it states that the only parameters accepted are:
-DgroupId
-DartifactId
-Dversion
-DpackageName
-DarchetypeGroupId
-DarchetypeArtifactId
-DarchetypeVersion
-DinteractiveMode
I could just search the directory and delete the files, but this proccess is going to be done automatically (so no human involved, no brains involved) and I wouldn't like he machine deleting things around.
Thanks for all!
Edit: I almost forgot, here is some maven trace:
