Update: help generation works now. I have created a branch of compiler plugin using annotations as a sample: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/plugins/branches/maven-compiler-plugin-annotations/
Now my idea is to create a branch 2.x from the current and merge the branch in trunk. 2012/5/9 Olivier Lamy <ol...@apache.org>: > Hi, > So I have pushed some stuff on supporting plugin descriptor generation > from annotations as described here [1]. > I have added support of having annotations from parent classes even if > they are not in the same project (from reactors and/or dependencies). > BTW we still need to do some javadoc parsing for @deprecated, @since > and comments for class/field description.
