Please upgrade to JDOM 1.1; current JDOM 1.0 contains a bug in parsing
comments starting with hyphen
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MRELEASE-460
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-460
Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Components: prepare
Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-9
Reporter: Andrew Lynch
The current maven release plugin fails if an XML comment started with three
dashes, even though this is legal XML syntax. This is dues to a bug in JDOM,
fixed in version 1.1 ( see http://jdom.markmail.org/message/b45honrv3crcmqux )
An example:
<!---dependency>
<groupId>com.p6spy</groupId>
<artifactId>p6spy</artifactId>
<version>1.3</version>
</dependency-->
Fails with the following error:
[INFO] Transforming 'BGC Refund Reader Service'...
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] FATAL ERROR
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
