Allow Mojos that don't participate in the lifecycle to be configured using
profiles
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-860
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-860
Project: Maven 2
Type: New Feature
Reporter: Jason van Zyl
Fix For: 2.0-beta-2
The particular use case here is setting the ${jdkName} variable to be used by
the IDEA plugin are part of the generation of the IDEA project files. It would
be nice to have this set across the board so that I don't have to specify it on
the command line or in each POM (which would be very unwieldly). Chatting with
John, it seems it would be reasonable only for Mojos that don't participate in
the lifecycle as to ensure portability of the build. Mojos that are typically
related to tooling are mojos that don't participate in the lifecycle like the
IDE related plugins which are generally gear for a user specific setup. Here's
an example of what might be nice to have in a settings.xml:
<profiles>
<profile>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-idea-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<jdkName>/home/jvanzyl/jdk/1.5</jdkName>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
</profile>
<profiles>
