I'd basically like to use "snippets", or whatever you call them. However, if
you restrict them to a "plugin pack", then I'd consider them as half baken.
There are lots of other places where one could use them. For example, a user
on [EMAIL PROTECTED] has recently proposed to use snippets within configuration.
My recommendation would be use an XML preprocessor. Like this:
<plugins>
<include ... attributes to configure the include here ...>
</plugins>
The XML preprocessor would replace the include element with an XML snippet.
Advantages:
- Easy to implement: It is sufficient to modify the code that reads pom.xml,
settings.xml,
and/or profile.xml. (At least I would hope, that there is "the code" for
each of these ... :-)
- Powerful: Could be enhanced to do filtering or stuff like that.
