Thanks much for your answer.
When a plugin is called, I'm confused as to what Classpath the plugin
itself gets. I see the project gets what I would expect, the
<dependencies> from the POM -- at least that is what I see in
project.artifacts.
But the plugin doesn't seem to get it's <dependencies>... When I print
System.getProperty("java.class.path") I see only::
[INFO] current Classpath=
c:\cwb-tools\ant\maven-2.0-beta-cwb/core/boot/classworlds-1.1-alpha-2.jar
Is there a set of properties for plugins like there is for project
(i.e. plugin.artifacts)??
Does classworlds take care of this somehow?? I know that, for example,
Ant must be on my Classpath because teh plugin is able to invoke it...
Thanks,
