How to inject dependencies from a mojo

[Guillaume Duchesneau <gd...@taleo.com>]

Hello,

 

I would like to inject some dependencies from inside a mojo execution so
that other plugins in the lifecycle can see those new dependencies as if
they had been declared in the POM. 

 

I naively tried something like this (see below) but other plugins in the
lifecycle do not "see" the dependencies I inject (my plugin is bound to
the validate phase).  Does anyone know how to achieve this?

 

/**

 * MyMojo

 * 

 * @goal inject-dependencies

 */

public class MyMojo extends AbstractMojo

{

    /**

     * The project whose project files to create.

     * 

     * @parameter expression="${project}"

     * @required

     * @readonly

     */

    protected MavenProject project;

 

    public void execute()

    {

        List dependencies = project.getDependencies();

 

        Dependency dep = new Dependency();

        dep.setGroupId("commons-collections");

        dep.setArtifactId("commons-collections");

        dep.setVersion("1.0");

 

        dependencies.add(dep);

    }

}

 

Thanks in advance...

 

Guillaume

Dependencies are already resolved before the lifecycle even starts... why do
you want to do this?
