How can I display a message in Maven?

In ant, we do have \"echo\" to display a message, but in maven, how can I do that?

You can use Groovy Maven Plugin for this.

                                                         
    org.codehaus.gmaven                       
    groovy-maven-plugin                 
    2.0                                       
                                                     
                                                      
            validate                              
                                                          
                execute                             
                                                         
                                                  
                                                         
                    log.info('Test message: {}', 'Hello, World!')
                                                        
                                                 
                                                     
                                                    
                                                        

The configuration above will produce the following output:

[INFO] Test message: Hello, World!
