[jira] Commented: (MPLUGIN-7) Reformat the autogenerated goal
parameters page to improve readibility.
[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPLUGIN-7?page=comments#action_55270 ]
Hervé BOUTEMY commented on MPLUGIN-7:
-------------------------------------
I tried to rewrite PluginXdocGenerator as a MavenReport, but I could not figure out how to use AbstractMavenMultiPageReport : did not find any documentation nor report using it.
Now I have code to write the new HTML report as a unique page : overview + 1 section per goal
If I don't find how to break it into multiple pages, I'll publish this version here : it's better than nothing and I hope it will help

> Key: MPLUGIN-7
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPLUGIN-7
> Project: Maven 2.x Plugin Plugin
> Type: Improvement
> Environment: any, jdk 1.4.2_06
> Reporter: Corridor Software Developer
> Priority: Minor
>
> Original Estimate: 8 hours
> Remaining: 8 hours

> The goal plugin:xdoc creates a table describing the parameters for a plugin. An example may be found here: http://mojo.codehaus.org/xmlbeans-maven-plugin/xmlbeans-mojo.html
> In the example, notice that the nowrap on the type, expression and default-value columns causes the descriptions to be crammed into the right side of the page.
> So rather than having these values in their own columns, position them in rows below the parameter as is done in the maven-model documentation for the project descriptor. This way the fields don't compete for space across the page:
> http://maven.apache.org/maven2/maven-model/maven.html
> What's more, the inclusion of hyperlinked xml at the top of the page describing the configuration section of the plugin would benefit the end user without manual effort of the plugin developer.
