Maven 2 & 3

• Type: Improvement
• Status: Closed
• Priority: Trivial
• Resolution: Fixed
• Affects Version/s: 2.0.10, 2.1.0-M1
• Fix Version/s: 2.0.11, 2.1.0, 3.0-alpha-3
• Component/s: Plugins and Lifecycle
• Labels:

  None

From the plugin manager:

PluginDescriptor addedPlugin = pluginCollector.getPluginDescriptor( plugin );

if ( addedPlugin == null )
{
    throw new IllegalStateException( "The PluginDescriptor for the plugin " + plugin + " was not found." );
}

One scenario where this actually happens is when the plugin JAR is unreadable. Hence, we should extend the error message and propose to the users to check whether the plugin JAR (pluginArtifact.getFile()) is intact.
