Hello everyone,

I've created a standalone plugin in which I'm doing some unpacking/copying
of artifacts in addition to a few other things. I would like to defer the
unpacking/copying operations to the maven dependency plugin for obvious
reasons.

Has anyone tried creating and configuring a plugin instance within another
plugin and calling the execute method directly? I'm tempted to try this, but
am worried about potential side effects. I figure I can try to build the
plugin instance with what components I've already got within my plugin and
pass them along. Is there a better way to use this, perhaps some sort of
core maven plugin builder?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
