[m2] Is there a way to trigger a goal on another pom within a plugin?

[Alex Karasulu <ao...@bellsouth.net>]

Hi,

I have a plugin that needs to checkout some resources then trigger a 
'mvn site' on the checked out sources.  Right now I've tried to fork mvn 
which works on unix but not on windows.  I'd like to get maven to just 
execute the goal on the other pom.xml without having to fork it.  Is 
there a way this can be done?

Thanks,
Alex

You should give the Maven embedder a try. It's used to do something 
similar in the maven-it-plugin:

https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/sandbox/plugins/maven-it-plugin

HTH,
