Robert Scholte reopened MNG-3131:
---------------------------------


http://maven.apache.org/guides/plugin/guide-java-plugin-development.html#Properties
 tells me that {{Properties}} acts a bit different than a {{Map}}. 
                
> Error message is misleading if a missing plugin parameter is of a type like 
> List

>             Project: Maven 2 & 3
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Dennis Lundberg

> Here is a sample output I got when I was working on the changes-plugin:
> {code}
> [INFO] One or more required plugin parameters are invalid/missing for 
> 'changes:announcement-mail'
> [0] inside the definition for plugin: 'maven-changes-plugin'specify the 
> following:
> <configuration>
>   ...
>   <smtpHost>VALUE</smtpHost>
> </configuration>.
> [1] inside the definition for plugin: 'maven-changes-plugin'specify the 
> following:
> <configuration>
>   ...
>   <toAddresses>VALUE</toAddresses>
> </configuration>.
> {code}
> Notice the second parameter toAdresses. It is of the type List, so the 
> correct configuration would be something like this
> {code}
> <configuration>
>   ...
>   <toAddresses>
>     <toAddress>VALUE</toAddress>
>   </toAddresses>
> </configuration>.
> {code}
> I haven't found where in the code base the handling of List/Map/Array 
> parameters is. That code could probably be borrowed/reused in 
> maven-core/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/plugin/PluginParameterException.java
>  which is the class responsible for formating the above messages.
