**[Simone Gianni](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=simonegianni)** commented I parametrized the WarMojo with two booleans, one to create the folder structure, the other one to create the war file. Then I created a new mojo, WarOnlyMojo, goal war-package, that subclasses WarMojo setting only the boolean needed to produce the war file. This way, it's possible to act this way in a project pom.xml : <!-- Default execution of war plugin, without war file generation --> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.0.2-SNAPSHOT</version> <configuration> <doCreateWarFile>false</doCreateWarFile> </configuration> </plugin> <!-- Execute any other plugin, binding it to the package phase --> <plugin> <groupId>xpatch</groupId> <artifactId>xpatch-maven-plugin</artifactId> <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version> <executions> <execution> <phase>package</phase> <goals> <goal>xpatch</goal> </goals> </execution> </executions> </plugin> <!-- Execute the war-package goal and create the war file --> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.0.2-SNAPSHOT</version> <executions> <execution> <phase>package</phase> <goals> <goal>war-package</goal> </goals> </execution> </executions> </plugin> Unfortunately I found no way to "merge" the two war plugin declarations in a single one, since : - Declaring two executions makes the plugin execute 3 time, once with the default way, and the other two with the customized configuration. - Declaring the configuration together with the executions, makes the plugin ignore the default configuration and execute once as normal, and then with the war-package goal. Anyway with this it's already possible to change the cocoon-deployer-plugin so that it does not extend the war mojo, does not suffer from the NPE caused more or less from what's described here http://www.mail-archive.com/dev@maven.apache.org/msg60770.html, and makes it possible to stack multiple plugins to work on a war before it's compressed to a single file. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
