Martin Kanters commented on MNG-6065:
-------------------------------------

[~rfscholte] For my understanding, we create a new flag called "--fail-level" 
or shorthand "-fl" which can have the values WARN/WARNING and ERROR? You 
mentioned that it should be ERROR by default, but do you mean that if you would 
provide --fail-level without any value, that it would be ERROR? `mvn compile 
--fail-level` seems a bit weird to me. 

Or did you mean that a build should fail when getting ERROR loglines 
irregardless of having this --fail-level flag set at all?

Currently a mvn build fails when an exception is thrown, not specifically when 
an error is logged, right?

> Creating opton --fail-level / -fl which is error by default, but could be

> I've been thinking the option {{--fail-level}} / {{-fl}} which is {{error}} 
> by default, but could be changed to {{warning}}/{{warn}}. We've had similar 
> request and they make sense: one should be able to execute a build without 
> any warnings.
>  I did an attempt to hook into the Logger to but that seems very tricky. The 
> other option is to have this level available in the API, so Maven core and 
> plugins can verify it for themselves and decide to throw an Exception. It is 
> a simple implementation, but now every component is responsible for checking 
> it, not really my preferred solution.
