Double logging with a Maven Extension

[adrian-tarau]

I'm building an extension which has a few goals in mind (one is provided by mvnd, which is less logging :) ), and I have an undesired side effect at the end when the extension is printing the report.

Since this is not the standard Maven, I cannot steal the logging (I also do not want that, as it will conflict with mvnd). However, I would like to detect when a build happens with mvnd and change the behavior a bit (like not printing the report at the end to the standard output since it is logged with regular logging). I could probably look at the source, but can you tell me what I can use (easily) to detect mvnd?

Thanks.

After I pressed send, I realized I could detect when regular Maven logging is available and react to that. It might still be good to know if it runs under mvnd; I might need to make other adjustments. Somebody asked to support mvnd, so I'm trying my best.

Simplest that comes to my mind is to try to load from (plugin) classloader a class typical for mvnd and not existing in mvn, for example org.apache.maven.cli.DaemonCli? Just throwing ideas in here...

It's an extension, but the same Plexus class loader system is used in both cases. I'll try with org.apache.maven.cli.DaemonCli, thanks.
