rgladwell/m2e-android — Issue #68: Create link files and folders for android files
Author: plause

State: open

the android file locations i preferred is:

```
src/main/android/
|-- assets
|-- res
`-- AndroidManifest.xml
target/android/
|-- gen
`-- project.properties
```

i can configure the android-maven-plugin to fit it by adding configuration section like this:

```xml
target/android/gen
src/main/android/assets
src/main/android/res
src/main/android/AndroidManifest.xml
```

if i import a maven android project, the builder will ask for project.properties, AndroidManifest.xml.

so, why not create eclipse link files needed by ADT while keeping the preferred file structure?
the final project file structure will like this:

```
src/main/android
target/android/project.properties
[gen] ->
[res] ->
[assets]->
[AndroidManifest.xml]->
[project.properties]-> target/android/project.properties *(may be generated by m2e-android)
[bin]-> target/classes
```

eclipse link files and folders will not exist in the file system but can be seen from the IDE.
