[jira] Created: (MNG-2067) Provide (more) details to generic error outputs

Provide (more) details to generic error outputs
-----------------------------------------------

         Key: MNG-2067
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2067
     Project: Maven 2
        Type: Improvement

  Components: Command Line  
    Versions: 2.0.2    
 Environment: Linux, JDK 1.5
    Reporter: Jimisola Laursen
    Priority: Trivial


I have noticed several places where maven could provide provide more informaton to error outputs, e.g mvn compile outputs:

"Validation Messages:

    [0]  For dependency Dependency {groupId=x.y.lf, artifactId=lf-test, version=0.1, type=jar}: system-scoped dependency must specify an absolute path systemPath."


Request: output the path that was specific (with expanded properties).

This issue is not specific to the example above. If people have more examples please add them as comment to this issue.

While on it, I can't seem to find a list of available/provided properties for Maven 2.x anywhere? Is there one?
E.g. what is the absolute path to the pom.xml file / source directory / target directory / etc?
