Can't get plugin to download/install correctly

Hi,

I have a plugin I am working on (the EMMA plugin at emma.sf.net), and I 
cannot get it to install correctly from a central repo.

I have installed in my company's central repository in 
/emma/plugins/maven-emma-plugin-0.4.jar.  I then have an "updateplugins" 
common goal that developers can run to make sure it is installed:

      <goal name="updateplugins">
        <j:set var="type" value="plugin"/>
         <j:set var="groupId" value="emma"/>
         <j:set var="artifactId" value="maven-emma-plugin"/>
         <j:set var="version" value="0.4"/>
         <attainGoal name="plugin:download"/>

I also add the dependencies (emma jars) in the project.xml of the project.

However, after running this, the goals in the plugin (like emma:report) 
are not found.  BUT, if I run plugin:install from within the plugin 
project itself, it installs fine!

Also, when I do this same procedure for other plugins, it work.

Can anyone explain what I'm doing wrong, and how to get it to install 
correctly from a central repo?

Thanks,
Chad

Hi Chad,

I think you need to use <attainGoal name="plugin:install"/>.
plugin:download will only download it, not make it available for use.
Or does that have side-effects you don't want?
