Bernd Eckenfels commented on MRELEASE-851: ------------------------------------------ Seems I forgot the link, added it. I will also add a sample pom which can reproduce the problem (but I am not familiar with testing harness to make a unit test out of it) > javaHome is ignored and inherited unexpected > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: MRELEASE-851 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-851 > Project: Maven Release Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.4.1 > Reporter: Bernd Eckenfels > > The release: mojos have a configuration <javaHome> which defaults to > ${java.home}. From reading the documentation it seems like this is used to > propagate the JAVA version of the marent process to the invoked build of > prepare and perform. This inheritance is important in order to properly > support compiles. The documentation does not mention that the option is > ignored. > The following proposed patch might be able to solve the problem by setting > the JAVA_HOME variable as documented. This also helps some situations where > CI servers not reliable replicate builds. > The patch does not include it, but most likely it should also be noted that > MAVEN_SKIP_RC=true should be added to the child's env. > https://github.com/apache/maven-release/pull/5 -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
