Anthony Whitford commented on MPLUGIN-226: ------------------------------------------ I think I made a mistake... I thought that I was looking at something like this: {code:xml} <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-plugin-plugin</artifactId> <version>3.1</version> <executions> <execution> <id>generate-mojo-descriptors</id> <goals> <goal>descriptor</goal> </goals> </execution> </executions> </plugin> {code} I don't understand why one needs to specify the goalPrefix (as long as you are following the maven plugin naming convention). > Plugin documentation suggests an incorrect goal for generating descriptor > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MPLUGIN-226 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPLUGIN-226 > Project: Maven 2.x Plugin Tools > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 3.1 > Reporter: Anthony Whitford > Priority: Minor > > On this > [page|http://maven.apache.org/plugin-tools/maven-plugin-plugin/examples/generate-descriptor.html], > the goal says {{plugin}} instead of {{descriptor}}. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
