Hi,
I'd like to put another patch up for discussion. I have attached [1]
and [2] to the Jira issue. These patches provide (yet another :-)
extension to use JDK 1.5+ annotations for Mojos. The consist of the
annotations [1] and a new descriptor extractor [2] that uses QDOX 1.6.3.
The main features are:
1. Multi-Mojo annotations. After writing a dozen plugins where I had
to use subclassing to supply to Mojos of the same kind in two different
configurations (like AbstractCompilerMojo, CompilerMojo and
TestCompilerMojo), I extended the annotations to allow a class to be
annotated with two different goals.
2. Mojo inheritance (rather: prototypes): With this, you can specify
prototype Mojos from which your Mojos inherits decriptor and parameter
properties. Now you can extend a Maven Mojo without duplicating all
annotations. Mojo and parameter annotations can be overwritten, of
course.
Regards,
Jochen
Examples:
Multi-Mojo-Annotation
@MojoClasses( {
@MojoClass( goal = "compile", phase = "compile",
dependencyResolutionRequired = Phase.COMPILE,
@MojoClass( goal = "test-compile", phase = "test-compile",
dependencyResolutionRequired = Phase.TEST} )
Prototypes:
@MojoClass( goal = "compile", phase = "compile", prototypes =
"org.apache.maven.plugin:maven-compiler-plugin:compile" )
Parameter Override:
To overried prototype parameters, you can use the class-level
annotations for parameters or components:
@MojoParameters( @MojoParameter(name = "verbose", defaultValue = Bool.TRUE )
Usage:
To use the patches, you should add the following to your pom.xml:
<plugin>
<inherited>true</inherited>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-plugin-plugin</artifactId>
<extensions>true</extensions>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.maven</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-plugin-tools-java5</artifactId>
<version>SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</plugin>
You should also apply QDOX patches [3] and [4].
The patches were tested with Maven 2.0.5 and 2.0.7. They do not run
with 2.0.6 yet.
