RE: Using property of another plugin from my plugin

Have you called a target of the maven-war-plugin?  I found that I needed  to
call a target, any target, to get the plugin to be initialized.  That does
work in the cactus plugin, although it leads to some extra processing going
on!

Subject: Using property of another plugin from my plugin


Hi,

I'm trying to use a property from another plugin in my plugin and it fails
for 
some reason. I'm using:

    <j:set var="warBuildDir"
      value="${pom.getPluginContext('maven-war-plugin').getVariable
('maven.war.build.dir')}"/>

    <j:set var="warBuildName"
      value="${pom.getPluginContext('maven-war-plugin').getVariable
('maven.war.final.name')}"/>

    <property name="cactus.war"
      value="${warBuildDir}/${warBuildName}"/>

    <echo>XXX = ${cactus.war}</echo>            


and I get:


XXX = /


Any idea?
Thanks
-Vincent
