Did you mean...
You could either include the full plugin config in the *profile* or
just a property value, whatever makes the most sense.
Okay. So, there are profiles. I'll use that.
I'm curious though, is there no way to create custom goals? I'm
wondering how someone would use the antrun task more than once in
their build. Let's say I had a foo tool and a bar tool, neither of
which had a Maven plugin, but both of which had ant tasks. What if I
wanted to create two goals.
bar:run
foo:run
But those goals really where calling antrun:run , which would have to
be used twice in the pom, once to define bar:run and once to define
foo:run . Analogous, I suppose, to creating ant tasks in build.xml .
Is there no way to create new goals short of creating a new plugin?
Are profiles supposed to be the means to define new tasks?

The best way to handle this is with multiple profiles. Then you
activate one with -Pprofilename eg -Pdbupdate. You could either

The executions section I've just added, but I'm not sure how to get
to where I want to go.
What I want is the ability to run this plugin with the update
feature on, so that I can update the databases easily, when I'm in
development mode.
What XML do I add to create a new separate goal? I supposed I could
toggle update using a commandline parameter, but I'm wondering, what
are the ways to create a different configuration for a plugin? For
the antrun plugin to be useful, it seems like you should be able to
specify many different task configurations.
