[mojo-dev] [jira] (MVERSIONS-207) No longer print "missing version #" warnings for plugins defined via parent

[Glen Mazza (JIRA)]

Glen Mazza commented on MVERSIONS-207 No longer print "missing version #" warnings for plugins defined via parent <pluginManagement/> Sorry, error on my part, I believe this patch needs to be reverted. The problem is in DisplayPluginUpdatesMojo's pluginsWithVersionsSpecified – this array (incorrectly) does not include plugin versions defined in parent-level POM <pluginManagement/> sections – only those contained in pM sections within the same pom being processed. Assume a plugin P in a child pom does not have a version number defined within its declaration. Before the patch, display-plugin-updates would complain that P's version is not defined if it is defined in a parent-level pom pluginManagement section (bug) and if it is not defined in a parent-level pom pM section (correct). With this patch, display-plugin-updates will not complain in either case, meaning (correct) and (bug), respectively instead. But "bug"/"correct" which results in annoying extra info being reported is still better than "correct"/"bug" which results in important information not being reported (i.e., a plugin version is truly not defined anywhere, and is instead being injected from whatever is in the user's local repo.) It may be awhile before I can come up with an adequate patch for this problem as hierarchical POM-parsing logic is not easy. If someone else who knows the code better can get this done, fantastic.
