The Maven Plugin Tool for Java is the java-javadoc
implementation of maven-plugin-tools-api to extract descriptors for plugins written in Java annotated with Mojo Javadoc Tags.

Notice: before 3.0, property
was replaced by expression
, with ${ }
required (expression="${aProperty}"
), but starting with 3.0, you can omit it (expression="aProperty"
), or preferably use property="aProperty"
.
