Can I override the maven-war-plugin?

[陈思淼 <ch...@gmail.com>]

I want to modify the war-plugin's source code and generate a new plugin in
my own groupId and artifactId to do something accouding to my own needs.
can my own maven-war-plugin to override of the original maven-war-plugin
when build war project?
If not, can I define a new packaging type called twar, to bind with my own
plugin?

Hi 陈思淼,
the second way is the one to go. Implement your own lifecycle.
"overriding" an existing lifecycle mapping is not simple (if even
possible in plexus), and anyway overriding a plugin is not simple
because of doclets pointing to private fields and not being retained in
subclasses.
