Karl Heinz Marbaise commented on MNG-6865:
------------------------------------------
Have you taken a look where the interface {{MavenExecutionRequest}} is being
used? That would be breaking change if we would change that interface isn't
that the case?
> copy in object scope rather in class scope
> ------------------------------------------

> Key: MNG-6865
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6865
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: core
> Reporter: Arne Lewinski
> Priority: Minor
>
> This refactoring refers to a more intuitive API approach.
> The interface "MavenExecutionRequest" should provide an object scope method
> to copy itself. This has to be implemented by each sub type of
> "MavenExecutionRequest". Neverteless: I only found the class
> "DefaultMavenExecutionRequest" implementing the interface.
> # Providing an object scope copy method makes the usage less verbose.
> # As the copy method is defined abstract: the MavenCli class got rid of the
> concrete class "DefaultMavenExecutionRequest" dependency
> The static copy method should be declared deprecated and can be made private
> in the future.
