How to write to Maven's console and how to trigger failed build from jellybean

[Martin Burger <m...@rtin-burger.de>]

Hello,

I'm writing a Maven 1.1 plugin that is launched via an jellybean defined 
in plugin.jelly. While my plugin is running, I want to write info and 
error messages to the "Maven console" and want to cause that the build 
fail if certain exceptions occur.

For writing to the console, is "System.out.println(...)" the best way? 
Or should I use some logger, perhaps "Logger.getLogger("org.apache.maven")"?

Is there any well defined way to trigger that the build failed ("BUILD 
FAILED")?

Regards,
    Martin

The latter.

throw new JellyTagException(...) IIRC.
