Hi, I was wondering if the <plugin><extensions>true couldn't be auto-detected by maven by looking at the components.xml in the plugin's jar or something similar, or wheter it could on by default.
It seems that when a plugin defines packaging/lifecycle extensions and you do not specify <extensions>true</extensions> you get a ComponentLookupException (Error looking up lifecycle mapping ...). I haven't looked at the code yet but I'm wondering why this manual step is necessary. The project model descriptor says it's disabled by default for performance reasons. I don't understand why this can have a performance impact, since maven-core also defines lifecycle mappings, and a plugin's components.xml is processed anyway (again, I haven't looked at the code). Btw, what's happened to the idea of having a discussion queue of 5 items for design issues? -- Kenney -- Kenney Westerhof http://www.neonics.com GPG public key: http://www.gods.nl/~forge/kenneyw.key --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
