Default file layout

If not otherwise specified the *.xsd,*.wsdl will be looked up in ${basedir}/src/main/schema

The source files will be generated into ${basedir}/target/generated-sources.

The resources incl. the TypeSystemHolder class will be generated into ${basedir}/target/generated-resources.

The generated sources and resources will be added to the project resources on-the-fly, so there's no additional configuration necessary.
