Alex:

I've just finished a first cut an an addition to the Avalon Meta Plugin. The addition is a goal that generates a artifact descriptor - sot of along the lines you have in the sandbox repository.

The new vesion of the plugin is available here:

http://dpml.net/avalon-meta/jars/avalon-meta-plugin-1.2-SNAPSHOT.jar

If your running under beta10 you will need to delete the plugins/avalon-meta-plugin directory, delete the cache files and replace the current version of the plugin. In RC1 there is a goal to auto install but I don't know what it is offhand. Anyway, here is a rundown on the functionality - within any project:

$ maven avalon:artifact

This will generate the file ${maven.build.dir}/[artifact-name]-[version].jar.meta, containing something like:

---------------------------------------

#
# Artifact descriptor.
#

avalon.artifact.group = merlin
avalon.artifact.name = template
avalon.artifact.version = 1.0
avalon.artifact.signature = 20031112.205712

#
# Implementation dependencies.
#

avalon.dependency.0 = avalon-framework:avalon-framework-api;4.1.5
avalon.dependency.1 = merlin:merlin-unit;3.2.3-dev

---------------------------------------

Ok - thats all for today.
Cheers, Steve.
