It seems as if today is not my day. First, I wrote a message in another thread
with tons of typos, making it look as if I am not just bad in typing but
actually unable to speak proper English. Now, I sent an incomplete message not
addressing the actual question. Sorry for that to everyone.

Escape hell, part 3: Powershell. Similar to Cmd.exe, but additionally,
you need to use '--%' right after the 'mvn' command to stop PS from
parsing the parameters any further as PS commands or whatever. The full
command would be something like (my local testing example:
mvn --% -pl some-app
... And I committed my own typo; it should of course have been "moving forward
with", not living. Darned auto-correct; I really need to learn to proofread
more carefully when typing on the phone.

Don't worry, we recognized your intent.
I do appreciate the feedback I'm getting. I asked for it, and hopefully the
parts that don't make sense to apply right now will be useful in the future.
But, yes, let's focus on whether what I've done is worth living forward with
rather than the details
Tangential topic - a while ago there was a thread/discussion about
adopting something like spotless/palantir-java-format for automated
formatting.
Whilst a massive change to the code base, which can (potentially) cause
horrors for open branches/PRs unless rebased with care and also
I've just issued a pull request proposing that the Apache Xalan-Java
project cut over from Ant-based to Maven-based build.
This is the first time I'm working with Maven, and I'm *sure* I have
done things that are bad form. If anyone has time and energy to glance
at it and sanity-check that I
Here's a fun one for your weekend. As you know from (almost) the
beginning of time we could invoke a Java application using Maven using
the Maven Exec Plugin, as in the following (although Maven's `--quiet`
may be a recent addition):
```bash
mvn exec:java
That's certainly an ambitious changeset, but it takes courage to do great
work.
I'd generally suggest trying to make smaller steps so it's easier on
reviewers.
For instance:
- Could you make a basic Maven build that delegated most of the work to
Ant with maven-antrun-plugin?
- If so,
There didn't seem to be a good intermediate point.
Maven wanted things organized differently, and I didn't know Maven well enough
to argue with it.
Switching from private binaries to Maven packages was a driving force behind
the cut-over, and the need to move from jlec to jflex forced the one
Re "IDE droppings"... My experience is that they can actually be useful in
expressing things like preferred code formatting style in importable/executable
form. (I'd rather have a standard cross-editor way if representing that, but I
don't know of one.) But I don't care that strongly; if

Sure. Just an opportunity to remove files
I have not even looked at the changeset yet, since last time I tried to
help with the taglet problem in the javadoc plugin. I was just following
the conversation a bit and want to drop a few general comments about
contributions and reviews in the OSS world:

Java CLI program arguments containing spaces are usually enclosed by
double quotes, so I would recommend to use:
-Dexec.args="one 'number two' three"
This works in both UNIX-like shells (say, Git Bash on Windows) and in the

-Dexec.args='one "number two" three'
