Description

When using camel-api-component-maven-plugin we must also add
build-helper-maven-plugin to ensure that generated sources are added
to the project for compilation.

To avoid this configuration step it is possible to add the source path
directly from the plugin by calling MavenProject.addCompileSourceRoot
and MavenProject.addTestCompileSourceRoot.

project.addCompileSourceRoot(this.generatedSrcDir.getAbsolutePath());
project.addTestCompileSourceRoot(this.generatedTestDir.getAbsolutePath());

This can maybe be done at the end of the execute method of ApiComponentGeneratorMojo and AbstractApiMethodGeneratorMojo.

It could also be a nice idea to add boolean properties in AbstractGeneratorMojo in order to enable or disable the automatic addition of the source.

@Parameter(defaultValue = "true", property = PREFIX + "addCompileSourceRoot", required = false)
private boolean addCompileSourceRoot = true;
@Parameter(defaultValue = "true", property = PREFIX + "addTestCompileSourceRoot", required = false)
private boolean addTestCompileSourceRoot = true;

if (this.addCompileSourceRoot) {
  project.addCompileSourceRoot(this.generatedSrcDir.getAbsolutePath());
}
if (this.addTestCompileSourceRoot) {
 project.addTestCompileSourceRoot(this.generatedTestDir.getAbsolutePath());
}
