> Warn regarding old-style references when used in a project build
> ----------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-4421
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4421
> Project: Maven 2
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Inheritance and Interpolation, Reactor and workspace
> Affects Versions: 3.0-alpha-2
> Reporter: Paul Benedict
> Assignee: Benjamin Bentmann

>
> I was reading the Introduction to the POM page. It says:
> > These variables are all referenced by the prefix "project.".
> > You may also see references with pom. as the prefix, or the
> > prefix omitted entirely - these forms are now deprecated and
> > should not be used.
> Jason van Zyl says:
> {quote}For backward compat they will remain during 3.0. We should collapse
> them in 3.1.{quote}
> Brian Fox says:
> {quote}Yeah deprecated in 3.x. However we'll always have to support them when
> resolving things from the repo since that's cast in stone for projects
> already released. We should not support them for projects being built with
> 3.x though.{quote}
> Paul Merlin has suggested giving them warnings to facilitate their dis-use.
> The summary is:
> (a) 3.0 should warn about the old-style references
> (b) The references must remain interpolated when present in poms drawn from
> the repositories
> (c) 3.1 should prevent their use in project builds
