I've created small program in Java
. It uses Java classes, some images and generates some other resources (.php
files, images, stylesheets etc).
I'm compiling sources as .jar
and creating an .exe
program, which should use my .jar
and other resources.
What is the best practice to organize all sources of my Java program?
I will recommend the below maven structure as the standard convention even if you are not using maven.
src/main/java Application/Library sources
src/main/resources Application/Library resources
src/main/filters Resource filter files
src/main/assembly Assembly descriptors
src/main/config Configuration files
src/main/scripts Application/Library scripts
src/main/webapp Web application sources
src/test/java Test sources
src/test/resources Test resources
src/test/filters Test resource filter files
src/site Site
