You need to read of the maven scripting <http://maven.apache.org/reference/scripting.html> help page.
In short, your customisations belong in the maven.xml file, NOT the project.xml file. Cheers, Dan -----Original Message----- From: Anthony Kong [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, 11 July 2005 12:29 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Cannot execute the pregoal Hi, all, In my project.xml, I have this pregoal definition: <project> <!-- ====================================================== Goals ====================================================== --> <preGoal name="java:compile"> <attainGoal name="checkstyle:run" /> </preGoal> </project> However, the checkstyle never get run before java:compile. How can I solve this problem? If I run "maven checkstyle:run", it runs as expected.
