Philipp Ottlinger updated RAT-160:
----------------------------------
Attachment: RAT-160-proposedPatch.txt
Thanks for your example project. I've added some minor modification when
evaluating your bug report.
I'd personally file a bug in the maven-invoker-plugin to make the creation of a
logfile optional or to put it in a different location under /target as proposed
earlier. A build.log generated during maven-invoker-plugin runs should pollute
your project's basedir.
RAT puts it rat.txt under target as well.
On the other hand a fix is fairly easy to implement. Though I hesitate to add
{code}
**/build.log
{code}
to the default excludes.
Would a plain
{code}
build.log
{code} be okay for you?

> When using maven-invoker-plugin to run integration-tests for a maven plugin
> project, maven-invoker-plugin creates a build.log file in the basedir for the
> project.
> This may be a bug in maven-invoker-plugin. Perhaps it'd be better to put this
> file in its build directory, rather than its basedir. Regardless, the
> apache-rat-plugin should ignore this build.log file.
