Use Consistent Path Case for $basedir
-------------------------------------
Key: MNG-3371
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3371
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 2.0.8
Reporter: Geoffrey Wiseman
We're using the Maven liquibase plugin, and we're using a project-local path to
define the changelog's filename (e.g. ${basedir}/some/path/to/filename.xml).
We're doing so in a multiproject build, and when we run the subproject build,
basedir is defined as "c:/dev/work/...". In the multiproject build, it's
defined as "C:/dev/work/...". This results in two paths that are, in Windows,
not case sensitive. Liquibase, which supports operating systems that are case
sensitive, uses a case-sensitive comparison to determine if the changelogs are
the same and accordingly decides that they aren't the same (although they do,
in fact, in this case, refer to the same file).
While I'm sure there are ways to improve this within the liquibase codebase,
it'd also be nice if Maven used a consistent case for paths such that this
problem wouldn't exist.
