Hi everybody,
I'm currently reworking my master pom to use the <pluginManagement> section
as proposed.
For me it is still unclear which parts of a plugin-definition need to be
placed in which section? (pluginManagment, plugins, reporting)
As i would interpret, the default config for a plugin should be placed into
the <pluginManagement> section, for example with the maven-javadoc-plugin:
1. i would place this under <pluginManagement>:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId>
<version>${javadoc.plugin.version}</version>
<configuration>
<source>${java.source.version}</source>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>deploy</phase>
<goals>
<goal>jar</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
in order to automatically create a -javadoc.jar everytime the deploy phase
is executed.
2. in the <plugins> section, i would only place this:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
to enable the javadoc plugin for my project (the version and configuration
would be taken from the section above).
3. also in the <reporting> section, i would place:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-javadoc-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<source>${java.source.version}</source>
<minmemory>128m</minmemory>
<maxmemory>512m</maxmemory>
<quiet>true</quiet>
</configuration>
</plugin>
for the site generation.
Is this right?
I also wonder, if those plugins only needed for the site generation, should
be configured in the <pluginManagement> section as well?
for example: the maven-jxr-plugin
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jxr-plugin</artifactId>
<version>${jxr.plugin.version}</version>
<configuration>
<linkJavadoc>true</linkJavadoc>
</configuration>
</plugin>
i would appreciate any help, or a link to the corresponding maven
documentation, since everything i could find was not that helpful.
