I'm using Apache avro to generate some pojos, all work very well in run, expect that the generated source is marked as inexistent in imports on IDE (intellij) .
I tried to use build-helper-maven-plugin to add source, but it doesn't work this is my maven configuration for apache avro and build helper plugins :
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.avro</groupId>
<artifactId>avro-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>${avro.version}</version>
<configuration>
<stringType>String</stringType>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>generate-sources</phase>
<goals>
<goal>schema</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<sourceDirectory>${project.basedir}/src/main/avro/</sourceDirectory>
<outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/generated-sources/</outputDirectory>
<imports>
<import>${project.basedir}/src/main/avro/errorkind.avsc</import>
</imports>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>build-helper-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.2.0</version>
<executions>

<source>${project.build.directory}/generated-sources</source>
</sources>
</configuration>

</executions>
</plugin>
"generated-sources" reside under ${project.build.directory}/target folder Also, try marking "generated-sources" as source directory. You can do that by:
Project Structure → Modules → Click the generated-sources folder and make it a sources folder.
