generated sources of other modules

I have a multi-module maven project. I use maven build helper plugin to automatically add generated sources to the classpath.

I am able to use the generated sources of module-X in module-X, however, when I add module-X as a dependency to module-Y, the generated sources of module-X are not visible because they are not included in the X.jar file.

Is there a way to include the generated sources in the jar file or force maven to generate sources of dependencies?

maven dependencies java

You can explicitly specify that the generated classes should be part of the output jar file:

<project>
  ...
  <build>
    <plugins>
      ...
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>3.1.0</version>
        <configuration>
          <includes>
            <include>generatedClassesFolderPath</include>
          </includes>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
      ...
    </plugins>
  </build>
  ...
</project>

Replace the generatedClassesFolderPath with the relative path of the folder where the generated classes are.

I had the same question and I solve it as follows:

Add an application class under package such as src/main/java/com..... in your module-X and add a @SpringBootApplication annotation. In addition to this, the application class can be no content. like this

Make sure module-X in module-Y dependencies and restart `module-Y.
