Hi all,
what is the difference between build/extensions/extension and
build/plugins/plugin/extensions set to true. It seems somewhat redundant
(yes, I could use a property) to have to specify the plugin's version
twice, as in this snippet from the maven-archetype-plugin's site:
<project>
...
<packaging>maven-archetype</packaging>
...
<build>
<extensions>
<extension>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.archetype</groupId>
<artifactId>archetype-packaging</artifactId>
<version>2.1</version>
</extension>
</extensions>
<pluginManagement>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-archetype-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.1</version>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</pluginManagement>
</build>
</project>
And on a similar note: Are extensions "plugin-managed" or do I really
have to repeat the version twice in the above? The output of
help:effective-pom seems to suggest that extensions are not managed: if
I leave out build/extensions/extension/version in the above, the
effective POM also lacks the version element.
I hope that somebody can enlighten me.
Best wishes,
Andreas
