Hi Max,
Don't confuse a mojo with a pojo.
The Mojo reflects the actual goal, supports injection, etc, etc.
A pojo is just that plain old java object: private fields with their
getters and setters
Only for mojo's the @parameters can be used.
Such field can be of a lot of types: String, primitive, pojo, array or
List of one of these types (as long as Plexus can transform it)
The @parameter on the name of the person won't work.
I've never developed Ant Plugins for Maven 2.x, this is the first time I
see this page.
My impression is that this was written in the early days of Maven 2.
I don't think there are a lot of people who are still developing
Maven-plugins like this.
I strongly advice you to first read the 5 minutes[1] and 30 minutes[2]
tutorials.
Next check if there is already a plugin which already solves your problem,
you're probably not the first one [3] (at the bottom are some other
maven-plugin communities)
Unlike Ant it's much easier to reuse "build-scripts"/plugins.

Thanxs Robert, but i still don't get it
i'm just replacing my String object (which works fine) by a Person object
so instead of having in my project's pom :
<configuration><person>John </person></configuration>
i have :
<configuration><person><name>Jason</name></person></configuration>
Doesn't it work this way ? :
plugin mojo.xml : declaring properties used in build.xml
plugin build.xml : executed part, using properties declared in mojo.xml
and
valued in project's pom
project pom : defining properties value
In a more simple exemple, how to use a List instead of a String
parameter ?
i'm using maven-plugin-tools-ant because i'd like use an already existing
build.xml file...
Thanxs for your help,
Max

Yes you're missing something.
If we keep it very simple: you can use properties to set the
configuration, but you can't use configuration to set a property.
I'm wondering why you're using Ant and not just making an Mojo.

have you tried to create a pojo called Person (with getters + setters
for
firstName and lastName) in the same package as the mojo?
did you add something like this to the mojo
/**
* @parameter
*/
private Person person;

Hi,
I'm developping a new plugin using ant, guided by
http://maven.apache.org/****guides/plugin/guide-ant-**<http://maven.apache.org/**guides/plugin/guide-ant-**>
plugin-development.html<http:/**/maven.apache.org/guides/**
plugin/guide-ant-plugin-**development.html<http://maven.apache.org/guides/plugin/guide-ant-plugin-development.html>

.
In this tutorial you can see how to map parameter for your plugin,
declaring in your pom.xml :
<plugin>
<groupId>org.myproject.****plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>hello-plugin</****artifactId>
<version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</****version>
<configuration>
<name>John</name>
</configuration>
</plugin>
and in your xml mojo :
<parameter>
<name>name</name>
<property>name</property>
<required>true</required>
<type>java.lang.String</type>
...
</parameter>
but what i actually want to do is using complex objects, as described
here
:
http://maven.apache.org/****guides/mini/guide-configuring-****<http://maven.apache.org/**guides/mini/guide-configuring-**>
plugins.html#Mapping_Complex_****Objects<http://maven.apache.**
org/guides/mini/guide-**configuring-plugins.html#**
Mapping_Complex_Objects<http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-configuring-plugins.html#Mapping_Complex_Objects>
>
<configuration>
<person>
<firstName>Jason</firstName>
<lastName>van Zyl</lastName>
</person>
</configuration>
I've tried several possible configurations but no success...any idea
on how to do it ?
Thanxs,
Max
