All you require in the end are instructions that are encoded in a plugin.xml. but -0 for discovery with runtime annotation instead of plugin.xml -1 This will cause massive compatibility problems.

Re: 1.5 Annotations for Mojo
We have implemented a Java 5 annotation for configuration parameters (PullParameter) in the Android Maven Plugin that might be worth looking at. We are still phasing them out across the system but a good place to look at the usage is the ProguardMojo https://github.com/jayway/maven-android-plugin/blob/master/src/main/java/com/jayway/maven/plugins/android/phase04processclasses/ProguardMojo.java Manfred On Fri, April 27, 2012 9:26 am, Robert Scholte wrote: +100 I've had a talk about this with Simone this month.

Re: 1.5 Annotations for Mojo
Hi there, I think JFrog (the Artifactory guys) has already published a set of Java 1.5 annotations for mojo development, including a m-plugin-p extension to use them. The source code is available on github [1], but unfortunately the artifacts are not available in Central (there is a ticket in JFrog's JIRA [2] regarding this problem). They even have reasonably complete documentation [3] plus it's all under ASL 2.0 AFAICS. From my own experience, these annotations work quite well. Shouldn't they be incorporated or used as a starting point? I guess starting from JFrog's annotations will not only save a considerable amount of development time, but also increase acceptance with those plugin developers which already used the existing JFrog annotations in the past.

Beware that (acc. to their documentation) the tool relies on APT, which is deprecated in JDK 6 and scheduled to be dropped from JDK 8. New code should use JSR 269. A processor can perform semantic validation, and can also actually generate plugin.xml; if registered in META-INF/services no special mojo or compiler plugin configuration is needed to activate this.
