Hi all,
many thanks for Your suggestions. I already check the different plugin
implementations (except tidy-maven-plugin) before writing my post -

have probably mentioned them in my post, I'm sorry. Unfortunately none of
them really seems to help me with what I like/need to achieve, expect of
the JDom parser approach that was implemented by Robert Scholte for the
maven-release-plugin version 3.0 - which hasn't been continued nor
released for 2 1/2 years now.
@Robert: I'd really like to pick up Your approach. Looks very useful to
me,
not only for the maven-release-plugin. If You don't mind, I'd invest a
little time to transfer it to a new library and extend it for my use
cases.
That would be great. I guess I was working on it before I had to switch to
JPMS/Project Jigsaw support.
Since then focus was on keeping all our ~100 subprojects running on more
Java versions.
The maven-release-plugin is not dead. There are more things that should be
improved for 3.0.0, but based on business value I need to focus on other
topics. Will definitely work on it again in the future!

@Anton: DecentXML is an interesting library, too. I'll surely remember
this
one.
@Matthieu: Besides some other use cases, we basically need this for a
migration of a very huge/complex project setup into a new project layout.
For this, (re)calculate our projects (including dependencies, properties
etc) and we need to continuously transfer changes between old and new
project layout for a transition period.

Hi all,
is there a way to rewrite pom.xml files without loosing formatting,
ordering and comments?
We need to (programmatically) do several changes on Maven POMs, e.g.
adding and removing dependencies and properties. Currently we're using
the MavenXpp3Reader and MavenXpp3Writer classes to read and write the
pom.xml files, but in the output files, all comments are removed, the
XML
nodes are reordered and formatting (indentations, empty lines) is lost.
Does anybody know a way how to read and write POM files without loosing
formatting ordering and comments?
Best regards
Marc
