I'm sorry I don't have specific experience in this area. Perhaps someone else can provide more guidance. I'm assuming you've googled http://www.google.com/search?q=maven+writing+a+report+plugin >From my quick reading the report plugins are bound to the site phase. Which means, as you notice, no information on what happened in the build. I think I agree with your assumption of writing two plugins. One for the build phase to generate report data, and one report plugin to pretty up the information. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
