Maarten Mulders commented on MNG-6371:
--------------------------------------
As far as I know, in more recent versions of Maven, this is possible. I wrote a
little [PlantUML plugin|https://github.com/mthmulders/puml-maven-plugin] some
time ago that leverages
[{{ServiceLoader}}|https://github.com/mthmulders/puml-maven-plugin/blob/main/maven-plugin/src/main/java/it/mulders/puml/plugin/ServiceLoaderPlantUmlFactory.java]
to find an adapter for the correct version of PlantUML, and it works with both
Maven 3.8.3 and 4.0.0-alpha-1-SNAPSHOT.
That doesn't fix it for Maven 3.5.2 of course...
> Use ServiceLoader mechanism in JDK9 in maven plugins
> ----------------------------------------------------

> Key: MNG-6371
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6371
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Class Loading, Plugins and Lifecycle
> Affects Versions: 3.5.2
> Reporter: John Poth
> Priority: Major
>
> It'd be nice to be able to use the ServiceLoader mechanism in maven plugins
> when using JDK9:
>
> {code:java}
> import org.apache.maven.plugin.AbstractMojo;
> public class MyMojo extends AbstractMojo {
> public void execute() throws MojoExecutionException {
> // this is empty
> Iterator<Tool> iterator =
> ServiceLoader.load(javax.tools.Tool.class).iterator();
> }
> }
> {code}
>
> Work around is to use a different classloader.
