[m2e-dev] Is this a case for a m2e extension ?
|
Hello,
We have a maven plugin using a custom packaging type whose main
objective is to generate a description text file based on the
configuration and declared dependencies(of the same custom type) then it
groups all files into a compressed file.
In order to use it with eclipse we have created a
lifecycle-mapping-metadata.xml to declare the plugin goals and allows
for incremental building. Also we modified the mojos in order to avoid
looping and unnecessary buildings.
it is working well (at least we can see the compressed file being
generated with the nested files) except when there are any of the
dependencies opened in the same eclipse workspace.
In such case we are getting an exception because aether is not resolving
the artifact to the generated compressed file at workspace but its
pointing to project's output directory instead.
What is the recommended steps in such case ? should we create a m2e
extension just for that ?
thanks for any tip.
Chris
