Henning Hoefer commented on MNG-6380:
-------------------------------------
I built the last 3.7.0-SNAPSHOT from
[{{827224c}}|https://github.com/apache/maven/commit/827224c7c8ca60b5b438c7648c55243b631827f4]
and retried it: Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be fixed.
> Option -Dstyle.color=always doesn't force color output
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-6380
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6380
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 3.5.3
> Reporter: Henning Hoefer
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: workaround-exists
> Fix For: waiting-for-feedback
>
>
> When the output is not a TTY (e.g. on a CI server), the new option
> {{-Dstyle.color=always}} doesn't work, because JAnsi itself is disabling its
> color output.
> {code:bash}
> # OK, produces color:
> mvn -B -Dstyle.color=always package
> # FAIL, doesn't produce color:
> mvn -B -Dstyle.color=always package | less -R
> # WORKAROUND:
> MAVEN_OPTS=-Djansi.force=true mvn -B -Dstyle.color=always package | less -R
> {code}
> The {{-Dstyle.color=always}} option needs to imply {{-Djansi.force=true}} –
> otherwise, "always" doesn't really mean always.
> The problem for the implementation is, that the JAnsi option needs to be set
> as a system property way early during startup.
