[jira] [Updated] (EASYANT-55) The attribute onMissingExtensionPoint of the bindtargets task is ignored

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/EASYANT-55?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Tim Enderling updated EASYANT-55:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: EASYANT-55-EasyAnt-respects-the-onMissingExtensionPo.patch

The attached patch is based on the current trunk (SVN revision 1480665).

It addresses the issue by the following changes:
* {{ProjectUtils}} will actually read the third field in the extension infos (if given) instead of using {{OnMissingExtensionPoint.FAIL}} as behavior for all bindings to missing extension points.

I know that extension points are originating from EasyAnt and the EasyAnt's {{bindtarget}} task doesn't have this attribute, but it's odd that the code in EasyAnt's {{ProjectUtils}} knows of {{OnMissingExtensionPoint}}, but does not know that it can be specified in the third array field. Also I was wondering, why those extension infos are presented as arrays. Is there a good reason for this or just convenience that prevented the developer from properly using the type system? ;-)

Like for my patch for EASYANT-54, I could provide a simple test case here to prevent re-breaking.

> When using the {{bindtargets}} task that is now part of Ant with a non-existing extension point, EasyAnt will complain about the missing extension point and fail, no matter which value was specified for the {{onMissingExtensionPoint}} attribute.
