THANK YOU to the original bug reporter for so clearly articulating the problem. I'd just like to add my opinion that this IS a critical bug that should be fixed for 1.0. --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
