[m2] want to centralize my build.xml for a multi module project...
I saw a reference to creating a build-tools.jar to use in a multi module
project for Jalopy:
http://mojo.codehaus.org/jalopy-maven-plugin/multimodule.html
I have dozens of projects that have the need to use the same ant
build.xmlscript and I was hoping to just create a dependancy upon it
like
org.delta.build-tools:build.xml:
Here is what my antrun plugin might look like:
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>generate-sources</phase>
<configuration>
<tasks>
<ant antfile="
org.delta.build-tools:build.xml" inheritRefs="true">
<target name="compile"/>
</ant>
</tasks>
</configuration>
<goals>
<goal>run</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.sun</groupId>
<artifactId>tools</artifactId>
<version>1.5.0_08</version>
<scope>system</scope>
<systemPath>${java.home
}/../lib/tools.jar</systemPath>
</dependency>
<!-- HOPING TO ADD MY BUILD TOOLS HERE... -->
<dependency>
<groupId>org.delta</groupId>
<artifactId>build-tools</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0.0</version>
<type>jar</type>
</dependency>
</plugin>

Yes, I mean literally modifying the maven-antrun-plugin code itself.
So, go pull down the code from Antrun:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/maven/plugins/trunk/maven-antrun-plugin/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/plugin/antrun/AntRunMojo.java?view=markup
and Checkstyle:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/maven/plugins/trunk/maven-checkstyle-plugin/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/plugin/checkstyle/CheckstyleReport.java?view=markup
and Jalopy:
https://svn.codehaus.org/mojo/trunk/mojo/jalopy-maven-plugin/src/main/java/org/codehaus/mojo/jalopy/JalopyMojo.java
And compare/contrast how their configuration files are loaded, and
probably you could figure out rather quickly how/where you can change
the Antrun plugin (the Java code itself) so it could load build.xml
files from the dependency (via classpath) to enable similar
functionality.
Or post a bug in JIRA against Antrun and hope someone will do the same
for you at some point, if you can wait an undefined period of time...

Jalopy and Checkstyle operate the same in that respect.
I am not sure what you mean by modifying the ant plugin. Do you mean the
actual maven plugin? I have never edited a plugin in the past.
Or is there another way?
All I want is something like:
<ant antfile="classpath: build.xml" inheritRefs="true">
where classpath: means the plugin should search the dependency classpath for
the LIB.

Its not a bad idea, but I don't think the ant plugin currently
supports such a use case. The plugin could probably be modified to
work like that, and probably without a lot of trouble. I'd take a look
at Jalopy plugin and see how it resolves resources that it uses.
Also take a look at Checkstyle, it does the same thing:
