Jesse McConnell closed MNG-681:
-------------------------------
Resolution: Duplicate
this is mostly being addressed in MNG-697
as for the compiling aspect, john mentioned maybe just forking off another
compile phase pointing at the new source...I'll investigate that later this
week I think, but I am good with closing this issue out.
thanks guys
> Plugin Utility Class
> --------------------

> Key: MNG-681
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-681
> Project: Maven 2
> Type: New Feature
> Components: maven-plugin-api
> Versions: 2.0-alpha-3
> Reporter: Jesse McConnell
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 2.0-beta-2
>
>
> Tryg mentioned that we might want to make a plugins utility class for some of
> the issues I ran into implementing a mess of a plugin.
> the plugin was pinned into the process-classes phase and generated a source
> file which needed to be compiled
> 1) I needed to have the classes that were compiled in the compile phase in my
> classpath for the plugin. my way around this was to make a URLClassLoader
> pointed at the compiled classes. The classes I was processing all used one
> of two interfaces and it would have been nice to have those interfaces
> available to cast the new instances of the classes and call a method
> directly. reflection served the purpose though
> 2) I needed to compile the freshly generated source file, so I ripped a mess
> of code from the maven compiler plugin to achieve this
> two examples of things that would be nice to have a cleaner method of
> achieving the same results..if you think it is a good idea I can generalize
> what I did into a couple of api's I think.
