I would much rather see the Groovy stuff work the same way as the
Beanshell and Ruby mojos. What is the script-maven plugin exactly?
Some BSF thing?
The 'BSF thing' is here: http://mojo.codehaus.org/script-maven-plugin/
I'm using this with some different languages and its working as
expected.
Sure, but if we have fully supported language factories I don't much
see the point of BSF. I have always in the past avoided it because I
couldn't get at specifics like compile Jython classes, and I'm sure
JRuby is going to be similar. This may be different now but I just
find BSF waters down your access to critical features, or at least it
used to, so I stopped using it long ago.
So I think that ideal situation would be to have one general plugin
like this (using BSF) so different languages may be used in basic
way (this would be a good replacement for using ant iniside maven
for some tasks).
My preference would be to not see the proliferation of both ways and
just have good support for each language with a factory and them them
vary independently. I have just found BSF more trouble then anything
in the past.
Jason.
And, for advanced scripting: dedicated plugins
line ruby-maven-plugin, groovy-maven-plugin and so on.
Those plugins may also provide 'plugin-tools' so [groovy|ruby] driven
mojos may be created. I was planning to create such support
for BSF plugin too but... I think it will be better not to have BSF
layer - if somebody wants to write a plugin then I thing (s)he
would need direct access to interpreter.
