Sean Flanigan commented on MNG-3507: ------------------------------------ The maven-colorlogger project references a chain of el4j parent poms which aren't in the zip. If anyone else wants to try it, I found the immediate parent here: https://el4j.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/el4j/trunk/el4j/maven/pom.xml In the end, I just removed the parent reference, told the maven-compiler-plugin to compile for 1.5, and it all worked. An even easier way to try it is to download the el4j binaries from https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=147215&package_id=162180&release_id=638658 and use the modified Maven 2.0.9 therein. BTW, if anyone was using an awk hack like this one while waiting for colour logging in Maven - http://blog.bazoud.com/post/2008/10/20/Maven-in-colour-/-Maven-en-couleur - watch out for interactive goals which mess up awk's line buffering... > ANSI Color logging for improved output visibility. > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-3507 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3507 > Project: Maven 2 > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Rahul Thakur > Fix For: 3.0 > > Attachments: maven-colorlogger.zip > > > Is it possible for Maven to use ANSI color logging?
