Anders Hammar commented on MNG-4951:
------------------------------------
Robert, thanks for the heads-up! I'll continue the discussion regarding that
plugin somewhere else more appropriate.
In any case, that plugin proves the point of the enhancement in this jira.
> Create re-usable component for encrypting passwords
> ---------------------------------------------------

> Key: MNG-4951
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4951
> Project: Maven 2 & 3
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Affects Versions: 3.0.1
> Environment: n/a
> Reporter: Anders Hammar
>
> I'm thinking of creating a plugin that would create the master password file
> and encrypt the passwords in settings.xml.
> To create the master password and encrypting the passwords, I could copy the
> code in the private org.apache.maven.cli.MavenCli.encryption(...) method, but
> (as the comment in the code also suggests) moving the functionality to a
> re-usable component would be better. It should then be used by Maven as well
> as anything else that would do something similar (like a plugin).
