Okay, thanks I will have a peek.
Just curious, what do you need this for?
Well, basically, I want to create a plugin, which will depend on
another plugin as a compile dependency, and then have the new plugin
pick up all of the other plugins goals and dependency configuration.
Basically, I want to _extend_ an entire plugin.
I'm trying to play around with how I can use more Groovy code in the
modules that support the groovy-maven-plugin, so I am playing with a
bootstrap plugin that just contains all of the goals to compile...
there about about 5 of them right now. But I don't want to have a
compiler plugin and then a groovy plugin, I want them all in the same
plugin, but I also want to write some of the other goals in Groovy,
which becomes well... not easy ;-)
So, I'm just experimenting with some ways to do it better... and
thats where the idea to have one plugin extend another came from.
