Plugins cannot contribute custom ArtifactTransformation objects
---------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-3127
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3127
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Artifacts and Repositories
Affects Versions: 2.0.5
Reporter: Kohsuke Kawaguchi
I was hoping to provide a custom ArtifactTransformation object from a plugin so
that I can define the likes of RELEASE and LATEST in my project.
But it turns out that because DefaultArtifactTransformationManager is
instantiated and composed very early on, even before any plugin gets loaded,
DefaultArtifactTransformationManager.artifactTransformations do not get my
ArtifactTransformation.
Note that the fact that DefaultArtifactTransformationManager is created early
on by itself makes sense because to load a plugin you'd need to be able to
resolve plugin versions.
I think what's really needed here is for DefaultArtifactTransformationManager
to have smaller scopes like PerLookup (so that it gets the list of
ArtifactTransformation that matches the current context.)
