Plugin descriptor, stored in <code>META-INF/maven/plugin.xml</code> in a
plugin's jar artifact.
This descriptor is generally generated from plugin sources, using
- <a href="/plugins/maven-plugin-plugin/">maven-plugin-plugin</a>.
- <p><i>Notice:</i> this documentation is generated from a Modello model but
the code executed is not generated
- from this descriptor. Please report if you find anything wrong.</p>
+ <a href="/plugins/maven-plugin-plugin/">maven-plugin-plugin</a>, but other
tools may geenrated it or it could even be hand-written.
Review Comment:
> It happens the file is written manually and it is regularly parsed by
other tools (rarely generated I guess, it is either the official generator or
manually done).
Do you have in mind valid use cases for hand-writing the plugin descriptor ?
If people write their plugins in a different language such as groovy, kotlin,
Scala or whatever... ?
