Maven compile with multiple src directories

Question

You can add a new source directory with build-helper:

<build>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
            <artifactId>build-helper-maven-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>3.2.0</version>
            <executions>
                <execution>
                    <phase>generate-sources</phase>
                    <goals>
                        <goal>add-source</goal>
                    </goals>
                    <configuration>
                        <sources>
                            <source>src/main/generated</source>
                        </sources>
                    </configuration>
                </execution>
            </executions>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>

I naively do it this way :

<build>
  <finalName>osmwse</finalName>
  <sourceDirectory>src/main/java, src/interfaces, src/services</sourceDirectory>
</build>

This worked for me

<build>
    <sourceDirectory>.</sourceDirectory>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
        <configuration>
        <includes>
            <include>src/main/java/**/*.java</include>
            <include>src/main2/java/**/*.java</include>
        </includes>
        </configuration>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>

To make it work in intelliJ, you can also add generatedSourcesDirectory to the compiler plugin this way:

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
    <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>3.8.1</version>
    <configuration>
        <generatedSourcesDirectory>src/main/generated</generatedSourcesDirectory>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

This also works with maven by defining the resources tag. You can name your src folder names whatever you like.

    <resources>
        <resource>
            <directory>src/main/java</directory>
            <includes>
                <include>**/*.java</include>
                <include>**/*.properties</include>
                <include>**/*.xml</include>
            </includes>
        </resource>

        <resource>
            <directory>src/main/resources</directory>
            <includes>
                <include>**/*.java</include>
                <include>**/*.properties</include>
                <include>**/*.xml</include>
            </includes>
        </resource>

        <resource>
            <directory>src/main/generated</directory>
            <includes>
                <include>**/*.java</include>
                <include>**/*.properties</include>
                <include>**/*.xml</include>
            </includes>
        </resource>
    </resources>
