The DSL files are expected to be located within the src/main/java folder. (For maven projects)

For example:
src/main/java/example.mydsl

What is the recommended way to change the expected location?

My goal is something like:
src/main/xtext/example.mydsl

I'm not sure if I just searched for the wrong keywords but I didn't find any topics regarding this issue.

am not sure if i get you

usually you use <artifactId>build-helper-maven-plugin</artifactId> to determine source folders in maven or via <sourceDirectory>src</sourceDirectory>

and you can do something like this in the plugin https://github.com/eclipse/xtext-maven/blob/3229f65bdf59f4197240b2e46c17438c898a4065/org.eclipse.xtext.maven.plugin/src/test/resources/it/generate/maven-config/pom.xml

Thank you Christian!

This part is what I was looking for:
<sourceRoots>
	<sourceRoot>model2</sourceRoot>
	<sourceRoot>model</sourceRoot>
</sourceRoots>


Is there a way to define the "sourceRoot" for the language? Instead of setting it for each project individually?

Simular to the OutputConfig?
