|
| <a href="https://maven.apache.org/plugin-tools/">Apache Maven Plugin Tools, version 3.6.4</a>.</p>
|
|
|
| <p>The Maven Plugin Tools contains the necessary tools to generate<br/>
|
| rebarbative content like descriptor, help and documentation. In addition,<br/>
|
| it provides tools to write Maven Plugins in scripting languages like Ant<br/>
|
| or Beanshell.</p>
|
|
|
| <p>The Maven Plugin Plugin is used to create a Maven plugin descriptor for<br/>
|
| any Mojo’s found in the source tree, to include in the JAR. It is also<br/>
|
| used to generate report files for the Mojos as well as for updating the<br/>
|
| plugin registry, the artifact metadata and generating a generic help goal.</p>
