Hello Jeff,

I tried following the description and it simply worked.
I created a class Platform with the attributes.
And 
        /**
         * The build platforms
         * 
         * @parameter
         * @required
         */
        private Platform[] platform_mappings;

This works fine.
Thanks for your experience and support.

Greetings,

Tony de Goede

Tony,

the simplest way of doing is to use Arrays. If you must use List, then look at 
the Mojo documentation as there are some limitations:
http://maven.apache.org/guides/plugin/guide-java-plugin-development.html
http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-configuring-plugins.html#Mapping_Complex_Objects
