Cannot execute the pregoal

[Anthony Kong]

Hi, all,

In my project.xml, I have this pregoal definition:

<project>
    <!--
    ======================================================
    Goals
    ======================================================
    -->
    <preGoal name="java:compile">
        <attainGoal name="checkstyle:run" />
    </preGoal>
</project>

However, the checkstyle never get run before java:compile. How can I solve
this problem?

If I run "maven  checkstyle:run", it runs as expected.

Cheers,
AK
