Just for the record, here's the solution if anyone else were to encounter
this:
My mistake was to do with basic annotation syntax:
In the header of my Mojo class, I had:
/**
* This goal will process a ...
*
* @goal metadatagenerator
* @phase compile
* @author Pankaj Tandon
*
*
/
/**
* This class is modified from the Ant Task ...
*
*/
public class MetadataMojo extends AbstractMojo {
...
Instead of
/**
* This goal will process a ...
*
* @goal metadatagenerator
* @phase compile
* @author Pankaj Tandon
*
* This class is modified from the Ant Task ...
*
*/
public class MetadataMojo extends AbstractMojo {
...
The extra block of comments threw my annotations off kilter and I did not
get the plugin descriptor generated correctly.
I introduced this comment before site generation and therefore the wild
goose chase.
Hope this helps somebody :)
