Hello,

For college I'm working on a lejos project (firmware replacement for the lego NXT robot) in netbeans. I'm using the lejos plugin so that I can upload to the robbot's brick. Now that problem is that I can only make a lejos project, but cannot convert it to Maven. So is there a way that I can have 2 projects (1 maven and 1 lejos) with synchronous source code? So that when I change something in the lejos project, it automatically gets updated in the Maven project?

Thanks in advance.

I think that just a few of us here know how a lejos project is done -
I mean, which build system is based on. I suppose is it Ant? In this
case, yes, it is generically possible to have a project whose same
source tree is shared by an Ant and a Maven. You need only to
reconcile the different source directory layout (src vs src/main/java,
etc..). This can be done either with Ant or Maven, even though
generically speaking it's always advisable to let Maven work in the
way it expects, and change things in Ant.

Of course whether this will make your life easier or harder depends on
many details.

Yes, leJOS works with ant.
How would you reconcile the different source directory layout in practice? (this is the first time I work with ant/Maven)
So I've got a leJOS ant project and underneath that a Maven project. What next?

Thanks in advance.

You should prepare some script that moves the files around; in any
reasonabily written Ant script there are are properties that refer to
the directories (such as src.dir). For instance, in Ant scripts
generated by NetBeans, these properties are in
nbproject/project.properties. You _could_ run in some bug and need
some specific tweak, but you can't tell until you try it. During a
transition period in which I had some projects in "dual mode" with Ant
and Maven, I had to do some serious patching to the Ant scripts, but
they were NetBeans Platform projects. Two small JSE projects worked fine.
