[m1] Referencing the plugin jar itself from inside plugin.jelly?

[Matthew Beermann <mb...@yahoo.com>]

I've got a Maven 1 plugin which declares some new Ant tasks (as Java source files). What I can't seem to figure out is, when I'm doing <taskdefs> in plugin.jelly, how do I make reference to the plugin jar /itself/?
   
  In the FAQ, I find reference to a stanza like this:
   
  <ant:taskdef name="checkstyle"
  classname="com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.CheckStyleTask">
  <ant:classpath>
    <ant:pathelement location="${plugin.getDependencyPath('checkstyle:checkstyle')}"/>
    <ant:path refid="maven.dependency.classpath"/>
  <ant:classpath>
</ant:taskdef>
   
  ...which is all well and good, it adds my plugin's /dependencies/ to the classpath, but it doesn't add my plugin /itself/. What's the property I want here? I tried ${plugin.jar}, ${plugin.path}, etc, but none of those is it. Is there a master reference somewhere to all of ${plugin.foobar} elements?
   
  Thanks,
  --Matthew Beermann

What do you want to achieve? Usually you don't need to set your plugin's 
classpath as Maven will do that automatically. If you want to access 
another plugin's classes, you'd just add it as a dependency in your 
project.xml.
