Can this be extended to include the plugin version and configuration?

Perhaps as a verbose option? I recently wrestled with a build and the problem ended up being that I had removed the version tag and maven apparently chooses the worst version in that case.

I was trying to verify that configuration was propagating properly from pluginManagement to build/plugins. So, I wanted to verify the configuration but also the version number would have immediately clued me in.

Considering how difficult maven poms can be to work with I really don't understand why this type of plan is not built in.

Have you tried mvn help:effective-pom (https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-help-plugin/effective-pom-mojo.html) ?

I'll have a look if It can be interesting to add such features, the version should not really be a big deal but the configuration information would need a new goal (and may be out of the buildplan scope).

That’s helpful, but sometimes (like what I was just doing) it was difficult to figure out exactly which versions were being used with which plugins etc. I will look at effective pom again, but I am pretty sure it didn’t do what I wanted. Bradley Smith,

configuration is definitively the purpose of help:effective-pom

@jcgay plugins version would be nice
