Maven: Where to find default bindings of package?

Wanted to know where default packaging and plugins bindings mentioned in Maven package. Maven official document says, it is available in META-INF/plexus/default-bindings.xml But, I coundn't find the default-bindings.xml.

I found one of JAR file named plexus-classworlds-2.5.2.jar from 'apache-maven-3.5.3/boot' path, extracted but couldn't found default bindings information there also.

Please help me to find default bindings information and usage of plexus.

Solution

  • The default-binding.xml file is part of the maven-core jar, here the github repo

    On your disk the path is : ${MAVEN_HOME}/lib/maven-core-x.y.z/META-INF/plexus/default-bindings.xml
