----------------------------------
Summary: xml:transform - Option to warn/fail if the resulting file
is same as the original.
Key: MOJO-1812
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MOJO-1812
Project: Mojo
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: xml
Reporter: Ondrej Zizka
Assignee: Jochen Wiedmann
XSLT transformations have one negative trait - it's hard to say when it goes
wrong by not matching something. It happens quite often that the transformed
XML changes, and the template stops matching some elements.
In maven, XSLT is likely to be used for alteration of configuration XMLs. Which
means, these are usually copied, only a part is changed. When the above
scenario happens, it leads to the configuration change not being applied.
For this use case, it would be nice to have an option in xml-maven-plugin to
warn/fail/ignore when the resulting file is the same as the original.
{code}
<onIdenticalResult>fail</onIdenticalResult>
{code}
Thanks for considering, it would help a lot.
