Hi all,
Today, I noticed Maven has an `-up` switch, for `--update-plugins`. The
help text says it's ineffective, only kept for backward compatibility.
With the advent of Maven 4, would this be a good moment to remove this
switch?
There much more of them to be killed, but before we do that we need to make
sure that any of our plugins which invoke Maven never pass them, then we can
discuss their removal.
Just checked, and indeed, there are a few more listed explicitly as
"ineffective":
-cpu, --check-plugin-updates
-npr, --no-plugin-registry
-npu, --no-plugin-updates
-up, --update-plugins
My idea would then be to see if any of these four are used in our own
code base (core as well as plugins). If there are usages, let's remove
them. That should not be hard, as they don't trigger any behaviour
anymore. After that, we can continue to drop them from the Maven CLI.
Would that make sense?
Maarten
