> getRelativePath fails on non-normalized inputs
> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MSHARED-19
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSHARED-19
> Project: Maven Shared Components
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: maven-doxia-tools
> Reporter: Benjamin Bentmann
> Assignee: Dennis Lundberg
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: normalized-paths.patch

>
> The algo in AbstractSiteMojo.getRelativePath() assumes that its input paths are both normalized and produces wrong output if it gets something like "dir/../dir". Attached is a simple unit test and a fix for the method itself.
> FYI, non-normalized path are easily created by Maven if one has a non-Maven-like directory layout with
> project/
> project-parent/
> project-module-1/
> where simple string/path concatenation produces a path like "project/project-module-1/../project-parent" when referencing the parent POM from the module POM.
> Path/URL transformations like normalization/relativization/resolution are quite ubiquitous in Maven. Isn't there a nice util class around that prevents each and every plugin developer to reimplement those error-prone methods?
