| <div class="entry-content"><p>The Apache Maven team is pleased to announce the release of the
|
| <a href="http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-help-plugin/">Apache Maven Help Plugin, version 3.0.0</a></p>
|
|
|
| <p>The Maven Help Plugin is used to get relative information about a project or
|
| the system. It can be used to get a description of a particular plugin,
|
| including the plugin’s goals with their parameters and component requirements,
|
| the effective POM and effective settings of the current build, and the profiles
|
| applied to the current project being built.</p>
|
|
|
| <p>You should specify the version in your project’s plugin configuration:</p>
