SebbASF created MPH-95:
--------------------------
Summary: Make "plugin" field protected so DescribeMojo can be
extended
Key: MPH-95
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPH-95
Project: Maven 2.x Help Plugin
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: SebbASF
The standalone Help Mojo has been updated to handle annotations, but the
generated help mojos added to mojos have not.
Rather than copy the code to every new Mojo, the generated HelpMojo could be
simplified by subclassing DescribeMojo and passing in the plugin Id.
However, the "plugin" field is private. Making it protected (or providing a
protected setter) would allow subclasses to set the field without needing to
use reflection.
A further enhancement might be to support a method whereby the calling plugin
can provide a link to its plugin.xml or other config item that provides the
necessary information, thus reducing the code needed in the calling plugin
