[09:34:09 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> EricDalquist I wanted to mention that I'm still looking at the solution for the data import for bundled portlets (though I already merged the pull request)

[09:34:56 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> it has come to light that the solution, as-is, doesn't reset the tables... i think it it would be better if it mirrored the behavior of initdb

[11:34:31 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> EricDalquist (or anyone) – is there a way in Maven to "link" one goal to another – such that goal #2 gets invoked automatically whenever goal #1 gets invoked?

[11:35:00 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> well ... goals get invoked either explicitly or by a lifecycle

[11:35:21 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> I don't think you can automatically invoke a goal in any way beyond just invoking the lifecycle it is bound to

[11:38:49 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> that seem to be the case

[11:39:11 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> can you describe what you're trying to do?

[11:39:24 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> in a more general sense?

[11:43:11 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> absolutely

[11:44:06 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> i'm still trying to persuade a bundled portlet to drop & recreate it's tables appropriately in the initdb cycle

[11:44:31 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> there is a hibernate3:hbm2ddl goal that can do that nicely

[11:44:57 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> so I haven't had a chance to look at the changes so far

[11:45:05 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> but it seems that when i invoke hibernate3:hbm2ddl on up-portlets-overlay/pom.xml, it crashes

[11:45:15 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> but jwennmacher was talking about essentially an "ant api"

[11:45:26 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> (interestingly antrun:run doesn't crash like that)

[11:45:35 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> how does it crash?

[11:45:39 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> sec...

[11:46:16 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> https://gist.github.com/drewwills/4716187

[11:46:53 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> actually that's with the plugin minimally configured in the up-overlay/pom.xml

[11:47:05 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> without the plugin configured at all, it's a bit different

[11:47:23 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> ah

[11:47:38 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> but it seems when i run...

[11:48:07 CST(-0600)]

[11:48:32 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> it actually tries to run that goal on the parent pom, which is meaningless and crashes

[11:49:01 CST(-0600)] <drewwills> i was hoping it would run on each child if – and only if – the child pom defines the plugin
