Sorry guys, my analysis was premature. I figured out the issue (which likely applies to java5 annotations on java mojos as well as groovy). By default, the maven-plugin-plugin:descriptor mojo runs in the generate-resources phase. But of course, the class files (from compile phase) with the java-

Thanks - maven-plugin-plugin 2.4 didn't have java5 annotations, so it wouldn't work there regardless. The issue seems to be the groovy compiler since it works sometimes (when greclipse generates the class files, but not when gmaven-plugin generates them). For now, I'll (unfortunately) stick with

I am trying to use java-annotations (not javadoc) on a Mojo written in groovy, as per [1]. (I need them so I can subclass the mojo in other, multiple plugins, as annotations are, in theory, much easier than the Maven 2 ways of doing plugin extension). However, the maven-plugin-plugin 3.1 does not
