archetype create swallows exception information
-----------------------------------------------
Key: ARCHETYPE-271
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ARCHETYPE-271
Project: Maven Archetype
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.0-alpha-4
Reporter: Pablo GraƱa
Priority: Minor
Attachments: jdom-error-message.txt
The DefaultPomManager.java contains:
catch ( JDOMException exc )
{
throw new IOException( "Cannot parse the POM by JDOM" );
}
all exc info is lost. My particular problem was that the archetype pom
contained:
#set( $symbol_dollar = '$' )
#set( $symbol_lt = '<' )
#set( $symbol_gt = '>' )
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
and the space before the xml declaration was throwing the previous exception.
I attach a very simple patch to make it easier to track these errors. It was
generated with svn diff > jdom-error-message.txt against
maven-archetype-2.0-alpha-4.
