-------------------------------
Summary: prerequisites element in pom does not work on maven 3.2.2
Key: MNG-5660
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5660
Project: Maven
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Command Line, Errors
Affects Versions: 3.2.2
Environment: java 1.7
Reporter: Alan Mehio
Priority: Minor
Failed to execute goal
com.google.appengine:appengine-maven-plugin:1.9.6:devserver (default-cli) on
project guestbook: The plugin com.google
.appengine:appengine-maven-plugin:1.9.6 requires Maven version 3.1.0 ->
It should work on a min version of 3.1.0 and not exact same version as
explained in maven pom specification below:
http://maven.apache.org/pom.html#Prerequisites
"The POM may have certain prerequisites in order to execute correctly. For
example, perhaps there was a fix in Maven 2.0.3 that you need in order to
deploy using sftp. Here is where you give the prerequisites to building. If
these are not met, Maven will fail the build before even starting. The only
element that exists as a prerequisite in POM 4.0 is the maven element, which
takes a minimum version number."
look at the project
https://code.google.com/p/appengine-maven-plugin/
and its usage
https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/java/gettingstarted/ui_and_code
and the command line which cause the issue
"mvn appengine:devserver"
