More About the Maven Plugin

The Maven plugin scans only the following items:

• Direct dependencies of a project (see also Important Note About Scanning Dependencies)

• Transitive dependencies of a project (see also Important Note About Scanning Dependencies)

• Build folder containing the application jars

The plugin creates a Maven goal called code-insight-scan, which will be executed along with the install phase of the build cycle to get inventory details, as described later in Running the Maven Goal for the Scan.
