Other plugins may need to use some of the functionality of the NAR Plugin, such as downloading and unpacking. The NAR Plugin therefore groups most of its functionality into the NAR Manager and allows other plugins and the NAR Plugin itself to call on the NAR Manager.
The SWIG Plugin which needs the swig native executable uses the NAR Manager to download, unpack and call the executable.
To use the NAR Manager, see the API Docs, add the following to your POM file:
<project>
...
<dependencies>
...
<dependency>
<groupId>com.github.maven-nar</groupId>
<artifactId>nar-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.4.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
</project>and use the code with the following snippet:
