[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2063?page=comments#action_75592 ] Jason van Zyl commented on MNG-2063: ------------------------------------
I think cliProperty would be more appropriate as system property use is being eradicated in the core as it makes embedding not work. > deprecate expression, add system-property > ----------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-2063 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2063 > Project: Maven 2 > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Plugins and Lifecycle > Reporter: Brett Porter > Fix For: 2.1 > > > expression is confusing. It is used for both default-value, and to allow > configuration of what system property to accept. However, now that > default-value takes expressions, it is redundant for that and can be > confusing, and because of its legacy in handling that, it is in the wrong > order for system property handling (see MNG-2062). > I propose we deprecate expression in favour of default-value, and add > system-property="someProperty" as the way to configure what command line > option can be used. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
