-----------------------------------
Summary: Parent pom should support plugin configuration/executions
per packaging-types
Key: MNG-6132
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6132
Project: Maven
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: FDPFC, Plugins and Lifecycle
Reporter: Robert Scholte
The parent-pom has the ability to preconfigure a lot for all the projects
referring to it. However, the parent be used for all kinds of project types
(jar, war,ear, etc). There are plugins which you would like to configure at
parent level, but not for every type. It would be great if you could specify
for which packaging the plugin execution should be activated.
On the other hand, it would also be nice if the plugin goals could specify its
default packaging types. I explicitly say default, I know a discussion with the
checkstyle team regarding the supported languages. It is possible to verify XML
with the checkstyle engine, though their focus is very strong on Java only.
