I have been working on packaging and building Maven from source on Gentoo. Without using Maven, just straight javac, etc. It is looking like I cannot do this without using pre-generated sources on Maven Central. I am having issues with ModelloCLI loading plugins. https://github.com/codehaus-plexus/modello/issues/15
My gut says MetadataPlugins are not the same as Generators. Maybe need to package more of Modello plugins and/or have them on the classpath. I am really not clear how Modello loads its plugins via Plexus. Once I can get the plugin loaded. I should be able to proceed. This is where I am stuck, Modello loading a plugin to generate Java from mdo files. I do not need any other formats, just Java. Even more interesting, seems to be a chicken/egg situation with parts of Plexus. Which also has mdo files. https://github.com/codehaus-plexus/plexus-containers/tree/plexus-containers-1.x/plexus-container-default/src/main/mdo Mailing lists for Modello and Plexus seem MIA. It does not seem like anything else uses this other than Maven. This is not a normal user issue, thus asking on Maven development list. If someone here does not know about Modello and Plexus. Not sure where I can find someone who does... Thanks for any help! -- William L. Thomson Jr.
