Does not seem to work when running MVN by individual targets

[droidkfx]

mvn install will run correctly and the configuration files are read in like expected.

mvn yaml-properties:read-project-properties jooq-codegen:generate -f pom.xml will not read in the properties and the plugins that depend on them fail to execute as a result.

Is this a limitation of maven plugins or this plugin in particular? Is there any way this could be fixed?

Sample POM:

<project>

  <build>
  ...
      <plugins>

Also on this note, I would be happy to help but I do not know alot about plugins. If the owner cannot fix this can they point me to how it could be done?
