Although not an apache developer, I must say, I disagree with that. As
Brian already pointed out, that bug cannot be fixed in Maven 2.0.x
correctly since it would break builds using _broken_ POMs. When fixing
this for >= 2.1 things should be done right and not worked around. Here
is an example of what I think is right.
<plugin>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>goal-a</goal>
<goal>goal-b</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<property>value-b</property>
Configuration of the default execution for goals
goal-a and goal-b goes here, overwriting any
configuration of the default execution for all
goals given below. Note the missing execution id!
That is the same as writing <id>default</id> as that
is what is defined in the schema as the default value
of an execution id. You really want people to write
<id>default-execution-id</id> here ? Why is the
execution id optional then ?
</configuration>
</execution>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>goal-c</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<property>value-c</property>
Same as above for the default execution of goal-c.
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
<configuration>
<property>value-a</property>
Configuration of the default execution for all goals of
the plugin goes here. That default execution needs to
have the same execution id internally as what is used
when a specific execution has no id defined in the
POM. That is "default" for the current XML schema.
</configuration>
</plugin>
I think the correct solution is to use "default" since that is
consistent with the XML schema. Someone using a POM which relies on the
bug (default execution of all goals is not the same as the default
execution referred to by an execution without an id or with an id equal
to "default") has to fix the POM when upgrading to 2.1. That is the
purpose of having that 2.1!
