NewBee - How to run maven plugin source in debug mode???
Is there a standard way of running tests against a maven plugin? I am
trying to customize the behavior of the changes plugin and want to run debug
the code i have changed in Eclipse? Is anyone doing this kind of thing in
an IDE? can you give me any setup tips?

Be careful, depending of the release of maven and some of its plugins it can
be important plugin:install-now and not plugin:install

yes if you want to debug your plugin in eclipse you must use MAVEN_OPTS.
You can create an external application with some environnement settings.
But to use your plugin code in maven you need to install it.
Also, you can take a look at the mevenide plugin for eclipse to run maven.

Re: NewBee - How to run maven plugin source in debug mode???

i'm not just trying to see debug information...i'm trying to actually run
the code in debug mode from within an IDE.
specific questions:
1. how can i get Maven to use the plugin source code i am working on in my
IDE and not what is in the REPO? - i'm guessing i set source path in my
Eclipse IDE to point to the code I am writing
2. How do you start Maven in eclipse?
I have found this on the web but it doesn't really allow full integration...
I would like to start Maven in Eclipse.
Before you run maven on the commandline,
set MAVEN_OPTS to: "-Xdebug -Xnoagent
-Djava.compiler=NONE-Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=y,address=5005".
This will enable debugging support in Maven
Then set a breakpoint in your plugin code in the Eclipse IDE,
and start the debugger for an external application, configuring it with the
correct port (in this case 5005.
If i figure this out i will post a follow up to the list

In maven 1 you can use the flag -X but it will be very verbose
With the last maven 1.1 in the trunk you can use log4j properties to put
some loggers in debug
