Hi,
So I have pushed some stuff on supporting plugin descriptor generation
from annotations as described here [1].
I have added support of having annotations from parent classes even if
they are not in the same project (from reactors and/or dependencies).
BTW we still need to do some javadoc parsing for @deprecated, @since
and comments for class/field description. So if annotations comes from
reactor module (easy to scan sources) but if comes from a dependency I
try to get the sources from the artifact with try to resolve the same
artifact with classifier sources.
All is in the branch [2]. Note version bump to 3.0-SNAPSHOT.
As the scanning tru asm must be done on compiled classes an extra
configuration is needed:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-plugin-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<configuration>
<skipErrorNoDescriptorsFound>true</skipErrorNoDescriptorsFound>
</configuration>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>mojo-descriptor</id>
<phase>process-classes</phase>
<goals>
<goal>descriptor</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
You can have a look at the its
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/plugin-tools/branches/MPLUGIN-189/maven-plugin-plugin/src/it/annotation*
I still have an issue to fix for help generation. Currently the help
java mojo source is generated too early in the lifecycle so the plugin
descriptor from annotations is not yet available.
I will probably rewrite the help stuff to have a generic classes which
simply read the plugin descriptor file so need to have the plugin
descriptor available.
Comments welcome :-)
Thanks,
