Since I was interested in the same thing, I did a little source code archaeology, and it appears that one way to accomplish this is to have a file META-INF/maven/lifecycle.xml in the jar. I found an example in maven-2.0.x/integration-tests/maven-core-it-plugin/src/main/resources/...
Disclaimer: I'm not guaranteeing it will work - someone else that actually knows the maven internals might confirm this. On 1/8/07, franz see <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Good day to you, takai, What phases do you think are lacking? If you want, you can file for a request for phase or lifecycle in [1] under the "Plugins and Lifecycle" component. Also, aside from the reference Rahul gave, you can also try and take a look at [2] for more info regarding lifecycles, phases, and goals.
