Writing my own mojo - how do I specify a default goal?

Hi! I am trying to write my own Maven plugin. I want to be able to specify it in a build without specifying any additional parameters. I don't seem to find any example after some googling. In a perfect world, I would like to write my pom like this: build plugins plugin

Re: Writing my own mojo - how do I specify a default goal?

You cannot have that, you need to bind the goal at least (and goal usually have a preferred phase it will bind to). Plugin that does not have execution defined but it still executes (as you say you'd want) is usually bound to lifecycle of the packaging in it's lifecycle mapping. So, unless you

I'd start with http://www.sonatype.com/books/mvnref-book/reference/writing-plugins-sect-intro.html And have a good look at http://www.sonatype.com/books/mvnref-book/reference/writing-plugins-sect-plugins-lifecycle.html#writing-plugins-sect-override-default-lifecycle -Robert Op Sat, 21 Jul

That's strange, but when I booted up in safe mode, deleted ~6GB of temp files, defragmentated a little bit, it works! It works like a charm!

Plugin that does not have execution defined but it still executes (as you say you'd want) is usually bound to lifecycle of the packaging in it's lifecycle mapping. So, unless you write your own packaging (I doubt this is what you need), you are left to declare plugin _with_ executions. But

I worked with Linux, it's pretty good, but I prefer Windows (at least until Steam gets ported to Linux).

You might want to try the VM-based approach. I use VirtualBox and Ubuntu and it works out very well. I can still play Battlefield 3 on my windows host and when I want to do some work, I fire up the VM! :) On Sat, Jul 21, 2012 at 2:58 PM, Cysioland cysiol...@gmail.com wrote: I worked with

maven-jar-plugin refuses to include META-INF/persistence.xml !

Hello maven fans, I've become slightly balder today. I've been tearing my hair over why JPA keeps insisting it cannot find my persistence unit. Everything in my persistence.xml file is correct I've checked it over an over. I've just discovered that the problem is not in the JPA provider

Re: maven-jar-plugin refuses to include META-INF/persistence.xml !

Maven just refuses to include META-INF/persistence.xml in the jar no matter what I do! It resides in src/main/resources/META-INF. After building it is also in target/classes/META-INF along with MANIFEST.MF, but it is missing in the jar file. Try a very simple test... Run mvn

I worked with Linux, it's pretty good, but I prefer Windows (at least until Steam gets ported to Linux). Good news for those of us who game on our PCs when not building apps with Maven... ;-)
