Gerhard Langs commented on MANTTASKS-80:
----------------------------------------
Pulled out Item 2 to a separate Issue (82)
> weak/Inconsistent handling of settings
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: MANTTASKS-80
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MANTTASKS-80
> Project: Maven 2.x Ant Tasks
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 2.0.7
> Reporter: Gerhard Langs
>
> There are some differences between the way that maven itself handles it's settings, and the way antlib does.
> 1. Lookup/Load of Settings Files:
> - in antlib, I can only specify one settingsFile, like this: <install file="target/xxx.jar" settingsFile="${gs}">, that means either the global or the user's one...
> - in maven itself, both settings.xml are combined (see http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-configuring-maven.html)
> It would make life much easier for antlib users to have the same funcitonality "out of the box", without specifying any settings-file
> 2. resolving of environment variables in a settings files
> (maybe this is a detail or a (negative) consequence of Item 1)
> in my global settings file, I have set: <localRepository>${env.MPA_ROOT}/mavenrepo</localRepository>
> - in maven env.MPA_ROOT is resolved to a real directory
> - in antlib, it is not.
