extending existing maven plugin

[Prashant Bhate <pr...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

Is there a recommended way to extend maven plugins?
which is better extend or aggregate with respect to MOJO inheritance?

I wanted to extend versions:set plugin to atoumatically increment
major/minor version and set based on argument passed, instead of user to
pass full version string,

Any clues are much appreciated.

Regards,
Prashant Bhate

Maybe it would make more sense to provide a patch to the plugin and see how
the feature can be integrated with some configuration option instead of
extending it.

You should look at the list archives. This has been discussed before.
