Christoph Läubrich created MNG-7958:
---------------------------------------
Summary: Confusing error message on required parameter
Key: MNG-7958
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-7958
Project: Maven
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Christoph Läubrich
If a required parameter is missing one gets the following error:
{code:java}
The parameters 'repositories' for goal
org.eclipse.tycho:tycho-eclipse-plugin:5.0.0-SNAPSHOT:eclipse-run are missing
or invalid
{code}
This is very bad from user-experience point of view, there should be no doubt
for the user if it is required (and missing) or invalid (present but has wrong
value). If it is invalid it should even mention why (e.g. incompatible types).
