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

Hi Vincent,

Sorry, I did not explain myself clearly : I'm new to Maven2 internals (which 
are huge, but great)...

What I'm trying to do is to replace xdoc gerenation (what is done currently) by 
direct HTML generation through Sink API (what is proposed by Johnny and Brett 
on previous comments).
To do that, I need a way to create multiple pages with Sink API.
AbstractMultiPageReport has startPage(outputName) and endPage(MultiPageSink) 
methods : that seems to be here just for this need.
But when I call startPage, I get a NPE...

I could not find any Report using this API : when multi-page is needed, 
everybody seems to go back to xdoc generation (that's the "solution" proposed 
in the thread you quote).

Do you know how this class works ?

Thank for your interest and help

> The goal plugin:xdoc creates a table describing the parameters for a plugin. 
> An example may be found here: 
> http://mojo.codehaus.org/xmlbeans-maven-plugin/xmlbeans-mojo.html
> In the example, notice that the nowrap on the type, expression and 
> default-value columns causes the descriptions to be crammed into the right 
> side of the page.
> So rather than having these values in their own columns, position them in 
> rows below the parameter as is done in the maven-model documentation for the 
> project descriptor. This way the fields don't compete for space across the 
> page: 
> http://maven.apache.org/maven2/maven-model/maven.html
> What's more, the inclusion of hyperlinked xml at the top of the page 
> describing the configuration section of the plugin would benefit the end user 
> without manual effort of the plugin developer.
