Benson Margulies reopened MEXEC-59:
-----------------------------------
The commented to the doc of the 'exec' mojo talks about the 'java' mojo,
presumably by mistake. Also, it's not clear if you can use %classpath to *add
to* the standard maven classpath. Can you write foo.jar:%classpath?
> Difference between <arguments> and <commandLineArgs> is not documented
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MEXEC-59
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MEXEC-59
> Project: Maven 2.x Exec Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: java
> Reporter: Trevor Harmon
> Assignee: Jerome Lacoste
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 1.1.1
>
>
> The exec:java goal has two seemingly identical elements: <arguments> and
> <commandLineArgs>. The difference between them is not documented.
> Simone Gianni made the following observations on the Maven Users List:
> - If commandLineArgs is specified, it will be used as is, except for
> replacing %classpath with proper classpath using dependencies
> - Otherwise if the property exec.args is specified, it will be used
> - Otherwise the list of <argument> and <classpath> will be parsed and used
> So, yes, they both (and the exec.args also) serve the same purpose, but
> commandLineArgs is taken more or less literaly, as well as exec.args, while
> the <arguments> element offer a more "formal" way of specifying parameters
> and calculating classpaths.
> These differences should be explained in the exec:java documentation.
