Hi all,
I had a look at this one, and solving it does not seem so easy.
In fact, the problem is simple: the user is trying to replace the match
with an empty String, which seems a valid request to me.
The thing is: Maven plugin manager does not seem to make any difference
between an absent tag and one specified with no value
(<replacement></replacement>).
I guess there's the following possibilities about that request:
1. replace the *required=true* attribute with* defaultValue="" *
- this would fulfill the need of having an empty replacement, but
having just forgotten the <replacement> tag would become undetectable
2. define a special constant like "[MBHNULL]" meaning empty String.
Seems a bit convoluted and not very intuitive to use without having read
the doc.
3. having a third tag like <emptyReplacement /> to use instead of
<replacement>. But this sounds as great as solution 2.
I guess the most intuitive way to go is solution 1. I'll go that way if
no-one objects.
Cheers
