> Not for the moment, but if you want to write a plugin, it's welcome. I'm writing one (maven-cpp-plugin). It's been... interesting. The include files make everything fun. We've taken to inventing a .car file (C archive) to handle dependencies. This is just a .tar.gz file with a specific layout (libs and includes in specific spots).
It's been working pretty well with Win32 and Linux, though we are still tinkering. Handling cross-platform has is own philosophical challenges. For example, do you try to write a single task that detects the platform and invokes the correct compiler, or you give the control to the user through properties and then only build if you detect you are running on a platform that matches the compiler (that is, if the compiler property is set to Microsoft's Visual Studio compiler and you are running on Linux, what do you do)? So far, we have gone with the latter strategy and skip builds where the properties don't match the platform. The whole thing uses the Ant tasks for C, which are a bit wiggy in some ways, particularly when using Win32 compilers. When it gets a bit more stable, I'll make it available, probably on http://maven-plugins.sourceforge.net/ (where I have commit permission, though I've not used it yet).
