[jira] Commented: (MNG-2173) support in plugins

John Allen commented on MNG-2173:
---------------------------------

Note that a work around for this issue is to configure the reporting plugins and their dependencies as part of your build in the <pluginsManagement> section of your POM, as they are reporting plugins they wont bind to a lifecycle phase (well PMD and checkstyle dont) and will thus be dormant in a normal build. 

However due to the way maven does things (a nice way of saying a bug depending upon perspective) when you run site:site the plugins referenced by <reporting> will use their <pluginsManagement> configured dependencies and will thus find resources in the custom jars youve specified.

Note, if youre activating the reporting plugins via a <profile> in a child POMs you need to (pre)configure those reporting plugins in the <build><plugins> section of your parent POM rather than the <pluginsManagement> section due to another bug that prevents specified depenedencies from being picked up in child POMs when activated from <profiles>.


Extract from my parent POM:-


	<build>

		<plugins>

			<!-- Maven bug workaround: plugins used in the <reporting> section can not have 
				<dependencies> specified (JIRA MNG-2173) and as there is no <reportingManagement> section 
				we can not set them up in a parent POM (JIRA MNG-1931) so we need to configure 
				these reporting plugins as if they were part of the build even though they are only used 
				in reporting so they can access their required dependencies. (fortunately they do 
				not bind themselves to a lifecycle stage so they do not get run in the normal build) -->

[jira] Commented: (MNG-2173) support in plugins

Posted by "John Allen (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>.
    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2173?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_101770 ] 

John Allen commented on MNG-2173:
---------------------------------

This has become a complete show stopper for us. 

Is there no progress/thoughts/concern regarding this? 

Many plugins require licenses and other auxiliary files and, this being maven and about a reproducable build, we wanted to use the dependency system to supply a JAR containing the license to a plugin via the Locator.java approach (used by Clover, PMD and Checkstyle) supply the underlying tool API with the JAR extracted resource. 

BUT as reporting plugins cant have <dependencies> we were trying to use the side effect of the fact (is this still a fact?) that if a plugin is already configured and in the 'runtime scope' of the build (ie it was declared in the <build><plugins> section of the POM but not bound to anything) then supposedly the <reporting> plugin MOJO will use that previously configured plugin, and thus find the <dependencies> defined in the <build><plugins><plugin><dependencies> section when searching for resources in it's configuration.

But it's not working and is causing me no end of frustration.

Can someone provide some forecasting as to whether this is 

a) recognised as a serious omission  from the model (that reporting plugins can not have <dependencies>)
b) it has been scheduled for a fix

What else can we do in the meantime?

--------------------------------------

As I said in MPMD-22 it's not a good idea to use extensions for that usecase.

-----------------------------------

I use the following approach and it works fine:

<build>
	<extensions>
		<extension>
			<groupId>cz.aspectworks</groupId>
			<artifactId>cz.aspectworks.build</artifactId>
			<version>0.2.0</version>
		</extension>
	</extensions>

I've got my PMD and checkstyle config files on classpath.
