Actually you are reading the Ant cgen docs. Ant task parameters are case =
insensitive. The Maven plugin docs are here and this page correctly =
shows the name as "superTemplate":

I haven't used it in a while, but it should be something like this:

<configuration>	=09
   <superTemplate =
>${project.build.sourceDirectory}/../templates/mytemplate.vm</superTemplat=
e>    		   =20
</configuration>

${project.build.sourceDirectory} is equal to =
"yourproject/src/main/java", and the above assumes you put your =
templates under  "yourproject/src/main/templates". The location is =
arbitrary of course.
