The following comment has been added to this issue: Author: Arik Kfir Created: Tue, 7 Oct 2003 5:20 PM Body: Oh I'm not sure I'm up for that - I've just began learning Maven as a user. I believe it will take me a while before I will get sufficiently fluent with Maven's internals.
I was merely sounding my honest oppinion, that if I, as a Maven user, wanted to override a goal, I would prefer knowing that it will be overriden in all cases, otherwise I would write new project-scoped goals, but then it is simply going back to the Ant model, where each build file defines its own target API. However, I will take a look at it and give it a shot, it might make me more fluent also with Jelly's internals, which I'm new to also. --------------------------------------------------------------------- View the issue: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/ViewIssue.jspa?key=MAVEN-356 Here is an overview of the issue: --------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: MAVEN-356 Summary: Inconsistent override of plugin goals from maven.xml Type: Bug Status: Unassigned Priority: Critical Time Spent: Unknown Remaining: Unknown Project: maven Components: core Fix Fors: 1.1 Versions: 1.0-beta-8 Assignee: Reporter: David Zeleznik Created: Mon, 31 Mar 2003 10:20 AM Updated: Mon, 4 Aug 2003 11:38 AM Description: We use beta 8 and override several standard plugin goals in our maven.xml. Testing shows inconsistent, but deterministic, override behavior. Depending on the execution context, either our version of the goal will execute or the plugin-supplied version of the goal will execute. Here is a very simple example of a maven.xml that overrides the standard java:compile goal: <project> <goal name="java:compile"> <echo>The java:compile goal in maven.xml</echo> </goal> </project> And here is the behavior we see: maven java:compile - our overridden goal in maven.xml executes maven java:jar - the java:compile goal in the plugin executes maven clean java:compile - the java:compile goal in the plugin executes --------------------------------------------------------------------- JIRA INFORMATION: This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
