Re: [tycho-dev] Invoke maven project extension before TychoMavenLifecycleParticipant - patch question

Hi Jeff,

I am aware of that, but my main goal was to be able to execute logic before and after tycho - the order was not that important.
But it is a good hint - we may also think of using something else than lookuplist…

Please not that the use of Plexus for discovery does not guarantee an order of execution following the declaration in the POM.

Hi guys,

In this thread I described why it is impossible to invoke any processing logic before TychoMavenLifecycleParticipant:
http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/tycho-user/msg02103.html
It is also connected to this problem: http://www.mail-archive.com/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/msg123753.html

Such limitation breaks the maven processing principle - since normally the order of plugins' in the pom.xml file defines in which order they are executed. Right now with tycho - there is now way to invoke anything before the tycho project setup finishes.  In order to add some more flexibility to a tycho build I think it would be perfect if there was some kind of a callback mechanism included in the TychoMavenLifecycleParticipant.

let's say that we could have such interface:

public interface TychoLifecycleParticipant {

       void beforeProjectSetup(MavenSession session);
       void afterProjectSetup(MavenSession session);

}

and then in the TychoMavenLifecycleParticipant we could add:

public class TychoMavenLifecycleParticipant extends AbstractMavenLifecycleParticipant {
   @Override
   public void afterProjectsRead(MavenSession session) throws MavenExecutionException {
       Collection<TychoLifecycleParticipant> tychoParticipants = plexus.lookupList(TychoMavenLifecycleParticipant.class);

       for (TychoLifecycleParticipant p : tychoParticipants) {
               p. beforeProjectSetup(session);
        }

       (…)

       for (TychoLifecycleParticipant p : tychoParticipants) {
               p. afterProjectSetup(session);
        }
   }
}


Do you agree with that and would you accept such patch?

Cheers,
Tom Bujok
