Hervé Boutemy updated MPH-160: ------------------------------ Description: during in-memory effective pom building (by maven-model-builder), the source location of content is kept in memory: see [Modello documentation on location tracking|https://codehaus-plexus.github.io/modello/location-tracking.html] and MNG-1803 for its integration into Maven model adding this information as comment on every line of generated XML would ease tracking for end users (and not only m2e users, who get "Jump to location" hint when editing their pom.xml in Eclipse...) This will probably require a Modello enhancement then integration (idea found during Devoxx 2018 Maven BoF, since users were missing ways to diagnose unexpected result in effective pom) was: during in-memory effective pom building (by maven-model-builder), the source location of content is kept in memory: see [Modello documentation on location tracking|https://codehaus-plexus.github.io/modello/location-tracking.html] adding this information as comment on every line of generated XML would ease tracking for end users This will probably require a Modello enhancement then integration (idea found during Devoxx 2018 Maven BoF, since users were missing ways to diagnose unexpected result in effective pom) > add source location in comments to effective pom.xml > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MPH-160 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPH-160 > Project: Maven Help Plugin > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: effective-pom > Affects Versions: 3.1.0 > Reporter: Hervé Boutemy > Priority: Major > > during in-memory effective pom building (by maven-model-builder), the source > location of content is kept in memory: see [Modello documentation on location > tracking|https://codehaus-plexus.github.io/modello/location-tracking.html] > and MNG-1803 for its integration into Maven model > adding this information as comment on every line of generated XML would ease > tracking for end users (and not only m2e users, who get "Jump to location" > hint when editing their pom.xml in Eclipse...) > This will probably require a Modello enhancement then integration > (idea found during Devoxx 2018 Maven BoF, since users were missing ways to > diagnose unexpected result in effective pom) -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
