RE: tag and ANY SCRIPTING LANGUAGE

Ant 1.6.1 added built-in support for Groovy, but the script tag exists in Ant 1.5.3 and should work with JavaScript and/or BeanShell directly.
>you'd have to either use maven 1.1
I'd like to wait for a (beta) release before attempting Maven 1.1. Any hints as to when there might be a release?
>or replace all ant-jar's in mavens lib/ directory with the 1.6 versions..
I don't think you can just replace the ant jars in Maven's lib with 1.6 versions -- have you done it?
I'm definitely willing to "settle" for BeanShell (or JavaScript if someone can tell me how to make it work.

Hi,
I'm using BeanShell in my plugin, perhaps you can find something usefull
if you look at the plugin.jelly

Subject: Scripting Maven 1.0 with BeanShell and Jython
I've been able to get BeanShell and Jython to work and documented what I did
on this page:
http://www.msgilligan.com/maven-scripting.html
I'd still like to be able to do the following:
1) Use the <ant:script> tag rather than Jelly tags (for consistency)
2) Be able to read and write properties from the scripts
3) Be able to use Groovy
I'll probably use BeanShell until Groovy is supported, but would if anyone
knows how to read or write maven properties from the script that would be
great.

Well, if it exists it should work. Try a basic build.xml using ant 1.5.3
and if that works those tags should work in maven.xml too..

A developer will have to answer this.. I've used it and found the
stability depending on the day you do a checkout.. So I understand you
wanting to wait ;)

I've done it, works perfectly. :)
I think this way you can get maven.xml to be run using ant 1.6.
However, when a plugin explicitly refers to ant 1.5.3, that plugin gets
run using that ant version, so you might also want to overwrite
the jars in the local repository with the 1.6 versions (renaming them
to 1.5). I know it's not the preferred way to go, but if you don't
want to wait for maven 1.1 and you HAVE to use ant 1.6 features in
maven.xml, this certainly works (at least for me - could be you
get a NoClassDefFoundError or NoSuchMethodException or something
when you use an obscure tag, but it's easy to revert..)

You might want to check out scripting support for Jelly. The scripting
language is pluggable (defaults to Jexl), so you might be able to find
a JavaScript language plugin for Jelly.
