Hi David,

have a look at the plugin lists from maven.apache.org and mojo.codehaus.org. There you will find a lot of plugins that do difficult work for you. The antrun plugin is of course good for backward compatibility, but I think there are better plugins if you just need to copy a file. Search the mailing list archives for my previous posts on that topic.

regard,

Stefan

Hello,

still in process of upgrading to maven2 here :)

Most of the work is taking good shape, thanks to informations on this ML.

I have a question regarding a few of our goals.

We have, for a war project, added a few goals that quickly do a copy of a part of webapp to tomcat (instead of building war or even compile). This is a way to allow easy test of jsp / pictures / css. Just patch a life tomcat with new files. We do this with such a command in maven 1


maven debug_deploy:jsp
maven debug_deploy:resources

those goals are just simple ant copy tasks in maven.xml.

What would be the recommanded way to convert this. Should i create a custom plugin that adds those targets to maven2, and include plugin in pom.xml, or is there a way to add targets to pom.xml? Should i use the ant plugin, but then how do i link it to a target instead of a phase?
