Yeah, in principle you are absolutely right. However I just need to execute the main method of a specific class without any additional arguments. That's a pretty generic functionality and the exec plugin proposed by Tim Kettler does the job.

I tried to write my own plugin and so far it could work if there wasn't a classpath problem. My custom class is not on the classpath of my plugin. Nothing of the project (which uses the custom plugin) is visible on the classpath (from the plugins point of view). Just curious: do I need to write some custom ClassLoader or should that work out of the box ?

Tnx and regards,

Alex

Hi,

This is exactly what plugins are for. I suggest you write a small
plugin - a simple Mojo that calls your custom java code should do the
trick.

Hi,

perhaps the exec-maven-plugin [1] is what you want?

Hi all,

I need to run a custom java class for generating some stubs. How can I
integrate something like that into a pom.xml ? This should be similar to
the antrun plugin except that it's java code I want to execute.

I've seen that it could be possible by using antrun itself, however a
more cleaner way would be nice.

Tnx in advance


Alex
