ASF GitHub Bot commented on MNG-8142:
-------------------------------------
cstamas opened a new pull request, #1557:
URL: https://github.com/apache/maven/pull/1557
If property `java.version` is in unexpected format, the activator throws
NumberFormatEx, that in turn, is caught and reported by DefaultProfileSelector
w/o any cause.
These should be cleanly reported instead: report that `java.version`
property is in "unexpected format", and also report why was there are failure
to evaluate a properrty activation.
Note1: Maven allows `-Djava.version` override, this is exactly what IT
MNG-3746 exactly does, but the
NumberFormatEx went unnoticed (was swallowed).
Note2: This bug was revealed by #1555 as it reported the issue, and later
"asserted error free log" which was not error-free. Hence, this bug was simply
revealed by improved logging on unrelated issue.

> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Bug

> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 3.9.8, 4.0.0-beta-4
>
>
> The JDK profile activator uses property {{java.version}} to determine is
> profile active or not, but if you look at MNG-3746 you can see that Maven
> _allows overriding that property_ by user, but also, today some "weird
> formatted" version may pop up in the wild.
> The JDK profile activator is not prepared for these cases, and will just
> throw (NumberFormatEx), without telling why it did belly up.
> Improve the message why it throw.
