> The web site says that it is possible to use other toolchains besides <jdk>.
> Actually the site links to a nonexistent TBD page. This is very ugly.
> Please tell the truth on the web page: It is simply impossible to use any 
> other toolschain type besides <jdk>!
> It would be really cool, if someone could simply write:
> {code:xml}
> <toolchains>
>   <type>installshield</type>
>   <provides>
>     <id>isx</id>
>     <version>10.0</version>
>     <vendor>macrovision</vendor>
>   </provides>
>   <configuration>
>     <installshieldHome>C:\Program Files (x86)\InstallShield 
> X</installshieldHome>
>   </configuration>
> </toolchains>
> {code}
> ...and the plugin would in turn simply provide a property that one can read 
> in the POM using {{$\{installshieldHome}}} -- without any need to write Java 
> code, register custom types, provide more xml, whatever!
> This seems to be such an obvious need that I just cannot believe that it does 
> not already work exactly that way in the 1.0 release of the toolchains 
> plugin...! :-)
> I really beg for that! :-)
