Savas Ali Tokmen created MNG-5563:
-------------------------------------
Summary: Ensuring only the available parameters are allowed
Key: MNG-5563
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5563
Project: Maven 2 & 3
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: POM
Reporter: Savas Ali Tokmen
I am one of the owners of Codehaus CARGO, which has a Maven2/Maven3 plugin; and
would have an improvement request with regards to how parameters are managed.
Currently, what happens is that if a user unwillingly puts a parameter in the
wrong place then the plugin execution continues as is. One of the latest such
issues one of the users has had can be found on
http://cargo.996258.n3.nabble.com/Maven-plugin-and-javaagent-tp18075.html
As an example, I can write the below POM and build still works (even thought
the MOJO has no parameter called "foo"):
{noformat}
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.cargo</groupId>
<artifactId>cargo-maven2-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.4.6</version>
<configuration>
<foo>
bar
</foo>
</configuration>
</plugin>
{noformat}
It would be good for the MOJO developer to be ablo instruct by MOJO to fail if
there is an unknown parameter in the configuration.
