Hi,
You should have a look at the Maven Invoker[1]
It is used by the Maven Release Plugin and Maven Invoker Plugin to fire up
a Maven build in a new JVM.

ps. next time you should the Maven User Mailinglist for such questions.
The Maven Developers list is used for development on Maven itself.

Dear sir/madame,
I'm Elmar Maan and I'm studying software engineering in Holland.
I'm developing a desktop application, that can easily generate maven
modules, inside a Maven project.
This will be a JavaFX application, so I need to call Maven commands from
Java code.
This is what I've tried:
First I tried to use the Maven library, which I found in the Maven
central repository. (org.apache.maven.archetype: archetype-common 2.2)
I wanted to use the DefaultArchetypeManager the generate a project from
an archetype (generateProjectFromArchetype(ArchtypeRequest, request)
This gave me a lot of nullpointer exceptions, because almost all the
classes that it uses are interfaces, which are never initialized.
So after three days of struggling with the library, I had no results.
Then I found the maven-embedder library.
This library lets me run the maven command-line commands, like mvn
archetype:generate, and works just fine, but I think it's deprecated,
because there is no more information on the maven site.
Also the library I used earlier has less or zero documentation or
examples.
My question is, What's the best way to call the maven archetype:generate
command, so I can generate archetypes from remote catalogs etc.
Is there another library, or am i developing something that is not even
possible?
Yours sincerely,
Elmar Maan
