parameters scope

[Willie Vu <ct...@ust.hk>]

I'm working on a plugin.  I run into a weird problem.  Somehow the
${maven.doc.dest} becomes empty string when I pass it to <mkdir> like this
<mkdir dir="${maven.doc.dest}"/>.  In the same goal, when I pass it to
<doc:jsl>, it seems <doc:jsl> gets the correct path.

Any idea?

It's ${maven.docs.dest} notice the 'docs'.

Also if you are retrieving that value from where it's defined i.e. the
xdoc plugin then you must retrieve from that xdoc plugin:

${pom.getPluginContext('maven-xdoc-plugin').getVariable('maven.docs.dest')}

Which is how you get values that are defined from a particular plugin.

Hope that helps.
