Maven bundled with Netbeans breaks user input

[Vladimir Machat]

Hi all,

The version 3.6.3, which is currently bundled with Netbeans, has a bug 
that breaks input when using print and printf, for example when trying 
to run following code:

Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in, "UTF-8");
System.out.print("Enter a word: ");
String word = in.nextLine();
System.out.println("You entered: " + word);

The prompt 'Enter a word:' doesn't get printed until you actually type 
in a word and press enter. Then the output looks like this:

tree
Enter a word: You entered: tree

It should look like this:

Enter a word: tree
You entered: tree

I did some experimenting and it seems to be fixed in version 3.8.2 and 
newer.

Are there any plans to upgrade the version of Maven in the near future?

Thanks

Vlad
