Herve Boutemy commented on MNG-8004: ------------------------------------ yes, duplicates MNG-7344 > Enhance location tracking > ------------------------- > > Key: MNG-8004 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-8004 > Project: Maven > Issue Type: Task > Components: Core > Reporter: Tamas Cservenak > Priority: Major > Fix For: 4.0.x-candidate, 4.0.0 > > > So far location tracking gives us source file, line num and col num, which is > fine. > But historically, Maven2 had only parent POMs, Maven3 introduced import POMs, > while Maven4 will have things like XInclude as well. > It would be great if we could enhance location with 4th element: "why (or > how) did this element end up here". Was it from current POM, from parent > maybe? From import-pom? Or was it XIncluded? -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
