             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.
