You would make a plug-in for junitdoclet which you would then use in your project and plug-in depenencies are fully separate from your project. The use of tools is encapsulated in plug-ins. Generating sources of any kind would be handled by a plug-in. The closest example we have is this: http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-generating-sources.html Your junitdoclet plug-in would look very similar to that. > Regards, > Dietrich > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- jvz.
