I'm well on my way in creating my first Maven plugin. One unexpected behavior, but I've coded around that. But what I require now is some what deviating; the plugin creates a special jar similar to onejar, containing all files that are required at runtime as a single deliverable.
Naturally there is some bootstrap code and it is present in its own jar-artifact. What I require the plugin to do is explicitly fetch that artifact and unpack it. It's not a dependency in the pom of the plugin (it could be, but isn't atm) nor in the pom of the actual project; I simply need a "artifact = resolveArtifact(groupid, artifactid, version)". It is either that, or I need to attach the jar as a resource to the plugin. -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/fetching-an-artifact-directly-tp27702529p27702529.html Sent from the Maven Developers mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@maven.apache.org
