Dmitry Katsubo created MRELEASE-734:
---------------------------------------
Summary: When releaseVersion and developmentVersion are passed in
command-line but are empty should be treated as not-defined
Key: MRELEASE-734
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-734
Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 2.2.2
Reporter: Dmitry Katsubo
In my case I would like to pass {{releaseVersion}} and {{developmentVersion}}
taken from user input, e.g. from [Hudson Release
Plugin|http://wiki.hudson-ci.org/display/HUDSON/Release+Plugin]:
{code}
release:prepare release:perform -DreleaseVersion=${RELEASE_VERSION}
-DdevelopmentVersion=${DEVELOPMENT_VERSION}
{code}
however if user leaves input fields empty it would be nice if
maven-release-plugin would treat empty values as non-defined and fallback to
default behaviour: inherit the next version from pom. Currently it breaks down
with message 'Unable to parse the version string ""'.
