Carlos Sanchez commented on MNG-2216: ------------------------------------- if this involves a change to the pom schema has to be postponed to 2.1 > Add default encodings section to POM > ------------------------------------ > > Key: MNG-2216 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2216 > Project: Maven 2 > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: POM::Encoding > Affects Versions: 2.0, 2.0.1, 2.0.2, 2.0.3 > Reporter: Trustin Lee > Fix For: 2.0.8 > > Attachments: example-pom.xml > > > Look at the attached example POM. > Do you see many duplicate configuration properties ('UTF-8') in it? and the > names of properties are very inconsistent. > It would be great if: > 1) Add a global section which specifies default encodings: > <defaultEncodings> > <!-- Default: UTF-8 --> > <inputEncoding>UTF-8</inputEncoding> > <!-- Will be the same with inputEncoding if not specified. --> > <outputEncoding>UTF-8</outputEncoding> > </defaultEncodings> > 2) Make encoding properties in all plugins to be consistent and deprecate old > properties. The default values could be: > inputEncoding = ${pom.encoding.input} > outputEncoding = ${pom.encoding.output} > so users can override the default settings easily. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
