------------------------------------
Summary: When a model is discarded (by model builder) for whatever
reason, show why it happened
Key: MNG-8140
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-8140
Project: Maven
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core
Reporter: Tamas Cservenak
Fix For: 3.9.8, 4.0.0-beta-4
Currently, when a model is discarded as "invalid", Maven 3.x shows this line in
console:
{noformat}
[WARNING] The POM for org.openjfx:javafx-controls:jar:22.0.1 is invalid,
transitive dependencies (if any) will not be available, enable debug logging
for more details{noformat}
And then when uses uses {{-X}} and battles himself thru a TON of debug logs,
will find the cause WHY the model was discarded (despite it was all there even
in non-debug session).
I as I dev want to know first hand (and as soon as possible) WHY a model was
discarded, so we should modify this output to:
* do not "redirect" me at debug output
* immediately tell me why
Note: Maven4 already have the CLI switch {{-sadp}} "strict artifact descriptor
policy" that will FAIL the build when it hits an "invalid" model, as users
usually don't want invalid models in their builds (is most often usually some
dev mistake, like using property for version/classifier while not defining that
property). This issue affects Maven4 as well, as if the switch is used, build
will fail due "invalid model", but user is still left in dark WHY.
