SCM plugin fails on "bootstrap" goal when shell environment has functions
definitions
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-3357
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3357
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Plugins and Lifecycle
Reporter: LEONID ILYEVSKY
When using scm:bootstrap, with goals to do after checkout:
mvn -Dgoals=compile scm:bootstrap
maven apparently spawns another process that will execute mvn command for that
goal. To set up the environment for the child process, it runs external command
(in case of Linux it is "env"), and tries to parse it, assuming that every line
of the output has "KEY=VALUE" format. However, when the environment has shell
functions in it, this logic fails.
I see two ways of fixing this.
1. Just fix the parsing logic.
Pros: this will be compatible with everything it is compatible today.
Cons: parsing logic will be essentially more complex, because you need to
figure out multiline functions definitions.
2. Use System.getEnv() to get the environment, make array of strings containing
"KEY=VALUE" expressions, and use it for the child process.
Pros: very clean and simple solution. I actually tested it, took 10 minutes to
do.
Cons: System.getEnv() became available as of JDK 1.5. Seems like all Maven2 is
supposed to be compatible with JDK 1.4, this might be a problem.
