Maven pluto plugin should fail or generate warning if web.xml already contains
servlet/servlet-mapping similar to one being added by maven pluto plugin
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: PLUTO-576
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PLUTO-576
Project: Pluto
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: maven pluto plugin
Reporter: Gary Weaver
If the web.xml that the plugin is altering already contains a servlet and/or
servlet-mapping element that looks very much like the ones it is adding it
should either fail or at least generate a warning. I know that having the
pluto-generated config in the web.xml of the portlet to be "plutofied" by the
plugin is wrong, but if the plugin makes web.xml invalid because that info
already exists, it seems like it should check for it. Please ignore this if it
is an invalid request, but I remembered that it worked this way, it caused
problems for at least a few people developing portlets for uPortal over the
past 2 years reported on the JASIG uportal-user/portlet-dev lists, and Eric
Dalquist just mentioned that perhaps this would be a good place to mention it
also since uPortal now uses this plugin. Thanks, guys!
