RE: How one plugin (using jelly) can set properties of another pl ugin

Also, I found it necessary to call at least one goal in the plugin before
setting properties in it.

Found my problem.  The Torque plugin I was calling had the following line in
its torque:init goal in plugin.jelly

   <!-- The default.properties file will map old properties to the new ones
along
         with setting the correct defaults.

         Note: I have no idea why this file is not already processed by the
plugin..
      -->
    <property
file="${maven.plugin.dir}/maven-torque-plugin-3.1-concur-dev/plugin.properti
es"/>

This overwrote any properties I was setting.

<maven:set /> is working fine.

<maven:set /> is preferred
