RequireReleaseDeps - allow to execute "onlyWhenRelease"
-------------------------------------------------------
Key: MENFORCER-43
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MENFORCER-43
Project: Maven 2.x Enforcer Plugin
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Standard Rules
Affects Versions: 1.0-alpha-3
Reporter: Jacob Robertson
Assignee: Brian Fox
Priority: Minor
Attachments: onlyWhenRelease.patch.txt
When I setup a project to use the enforcer plugin, I would like to setup the
requireReleaseDeps rule. However, while I am in "snapshot" mode with my
project, I'm not that concerned about whether that project depends on
snapshots. For example, I may have a small suite of projects which are being
developed at the same time. They may also share a common parent. (Just like
the maven enforcer projects do) Especially in the case where I place the maven
enforcer plugin configuration in that parent pom, it wouldn't make sense for me
to have to "comment out" the requireReleaseDeps rule during my snapshot
development, only to have to switch it back at release time. Rather, what I
want to express is "enforce the requireReleaseDeps rule, but only when I'm a
release".
The pom snippet would look like
{code}
<requireReleaseDeps>
<onlyWhenRelease>true</onlyWhenRelease>
<searchTransitive>true</searchTransitive>
</requireReleaseDeps>
{code}
I have attached a patch that shows what I'm thinking, and the updated test case
to show that it works as expected.
