Maven guys, I think this is a valid request. I'm using maven on one project
to make it easier for non-developers to run builds. I'd like to have it
prompt for environment variables, too.
I'd like to make a maven-prompt-plugin that will take the configuration and
prompt the user for variable values.
This seems like it might be useful for things like confirming actions, etc.
You could configure it inside a profile. What does everyone else think of
this idea?
I'd like to also know what the ramifications would be on the m2eclipse
plugin.
Thoughts?
