Vincent Siveton closed MPLUGIN-80. ---------------------------------- Assignee: Vincent Siveton Resolution: Fixed Fix Version/s: 2.4 Fixed and snapshots redeployed > Detection of report goals always fails due to class loader separation > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MPLUGIN-80 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPLUGIN-80 > Project: Maven 2.x Plugin Tools > Issue Type: Bug > Components: API, Plugin Plugin > Reporter: Benjamin Bentmann > Assignee: Vincent Siveton > Fix For: 2.4 > > > {{PluginUtils}} simply invokes {{Class.forName(String)}} to load a mojo class > from the current project using its plugin class loader. However, as outlined > in [Guide to Maven > Classloading|http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-maven-classloading.html], > Maven plugins have no direct access to the classes of the current project. > Besides, wouldn't the maven-plugin-plugin's {{report}} goal need [EMAIL > PROTECTED] phase="compile"}} in order to ensure the mojo classes are existent > prior to try to load them? > Not sure about that but maybe it's worth to extend the mojo descriptor with a > flag "report" such that this info could be retrieved without reflection in > some far future but is derived by the goal extractors. > P.S: You don't need to instantiate a class just to do {{instanceof}} > checking. To check for a report mojo simply do: > {code:java} > MavenReport.class.isAssignableFrom( clazz ); > {code} -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
