Description

It would be great if this plugin would support multiple source folders added by http://mojo.codehaus.org/build-helper-maven-plugin/ (or similar), and by default inspect sources from these folders instead of just ${project.build.sourceDirectory}. Correspondingly with respect to test sources if those are configured to be included.

There are other plugins available solving this problem (somehow), eg:

• http://mojo.codehaus.org/jdepend-maven-plugin/
• http://mojo.codehaus.org/findbugs-maven-plugin/

Maybe they can give some inspiration for how to make this possible?
