Steve Gilbert commented on MPIR-195:
------------------------------------
Lukas- I am using version 2.2.1 of maven, which is the latest released, stable
version AFAIK.
You say the site plugin's version is specified in the super pom, which
establishes a "default" version.
You say 'There is no "default" version of the pir-plugin. It is not specified
in any version of the maven super pom, so maven will use the last version it
finds in your repo.' I started with an empty repo. Maven pulls down a version
of the plugin into my empty repo. Whatever it pulls down is the default
version. The fact that it is not declared in a pom does not mean there is no
default version. The default version is apparently determined by maven's
resolution logic, but there is still a default version.
If you are going to say that I've not followed a maven best practice documented
in an obscure document that that is your final position, I suppose there is
nothing I can do but spend all day tomorrow modifying poms, however I still
assert this is a regression bug. I had a number of working poms that used the
default versions of the plugins before the 2.2 version was released and now
they don't work.
We've not declared our site plugin version so that we use the latest version
released by your team. I believe what you are saying is that in fact that
practice is bad and that we should be tied to a specific version and relying on
the latest released version is a bad idea.

> Key: MPIR-195
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPIR-195
> Project: Maven 2.x Project Info Reports Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.2
> Reporter: Steve Gilbert
> Assignee: Lukas Theussl
> Priority: Critical
>
> With an empty local repository using Maven 2.2.1, if plugin is added to the
> reporting section of the pom.xml, the site goal throws a
> java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException and the build fails.
> Removing the plugin from the section or changing the version back to 2.1.2
> (from 2.2) resolves the problem.
> This prevents using any configuration of the plugin.
> Placing the following pom into an empty directory and executing "mvn site"
> demonstrates the bug.
