-------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Bug
Assignee: Robert Scholte
That's because Maven first reads the {{pom.xml}} of the Maven execution folder
before doing any actions. It discovers the packaging-type {{dll}}, for which he
doesn't know what to do. There's no description which plugin should be called
during a specific phase. So Maven stops.
It should work if the {{pom.xml}} was in another folder (i.e. changing the
-DpomFile parameter).
However, that makes the {{pom.xml}} useless for building. It'll only be useful
for dependency management.
One solution is to add the native-maven-plugin, see its
[usage|http://mojo.codehaus.org/maven-native/native-maven-plugin/usage.html]
page.
