Does it only list predefined plugins?

[gilbertoca]

Hi, this is more a question.
In my project I have only defined two plugins:

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.junit.jupiter</groupId>
            <artifactId>junit-jupiter-params</artifactId>
            <version>5.6.0</version>
            <scope>test</scope>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>
    <build>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>3.8.0</version>
                <configuration>
                    <release>11</release>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.openjfx</groupId>
                <artifactId>javafx-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>0.0.3</version>
                <configuration>
                    <mainClass>com.gilbertoca.corretagem.App</mainClass>
                </configuration>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>
</project>
gilberto@linux-ycqq:~/tmp/JAVAFX/nota-corretagem-fx (master)$

But the list-plugin goal shows nothing about them:

Perhaps I didn't understand the plugin usage? Shouldn't it list only the defined one, two in this case?
Thank you!

Hi,

The plugin will show you every plugins that would be executed if you run a mvn deploy by default.
In your example it shows you that the maven-compiler-plugin will indeed be run twice, one time to compile your production code and one more time to compile your test code.

I don't know what is the purpose of javafx-maven-plugin but if it doesn't show up, this is certainly because there is no execution bind to a pre-defined phase by default. Nothing is executed by this plugin when you run mvn deploy.

You can find some examples on http://buildplan.jcgay.fr/usage.html.

Hopes that help, let me know :)
