Subject: help: antrun does not do anything

Because some functions not available or not easily accomplishable in maven, so I turned to the antrun in maven. But I can never get the antrun working, please help me out.

 

I read the Maven AntRun Plugnin page, http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-antrun-plugin/, and followed all the instructions and tried all the examples in the examples section,  http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-antrun-plugin/examples/classpaths.html. But nothing is generated from the antrun. I tried a very simple ant command, <mkdir dir="abc" />, or an ant task                

<ant antfile="build.xml">
    <target name="test"/>
</ant>

between the maven <tasks>. The ant "test target" is to make a directory, which works fine when issuing "ant test", but nothing happen in mvn. Strange, the mvn command shows execution successful, see below:

I tried removing the antrun plugin from the pom.xml, the mvn antrun output is exactly the same as above. Got confused.

thanks for any help.
