Francois MAROT created MNG-6336:
-----------------------------------
Summary: Aggregator Mojo should be executed only once even when
part of the lifecycle
Key: MNG-6336
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6336
Project: Maven
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: core
Affects Versions: 3.5.2
Reporter: Francois MAROT
Priority: Minor
Currently aggregator Mojo (annotated with @Mojo(aggregator=true, ...) ) are
used to define Mojo whose goal whould be called directly, not bound to a
lifecycle phase.
This is the case for release:prepare / release:perform for exemple.
I would be good if such aggregator Mojo ware also executed only once when part
of a lifecycle. Currently we have to specify <inherited>false</inherited> in
the pom.
It would comply to the principle of least surprise because it seems every doc I
found just say something "like these Mojo will be executed only once", and do
not specify "in the case of direct invocation".
I first reported this behavior on the mailing list:
http://maven.40175.n5.nabble.com/Make-custom-plugin-executed-only-once-in-multimodule-inherited-false-aggregator-td5921630.html
This JIRA may be related to improvement in the lifecycle ( MNG-5665 ) as
suggested by [~rfscholte]
