[jira] Commented: (MSUREFIRE-64) Old syntax for specifying system properties should still be supported

["Vincent Massol (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

Vincent Massol commented on MSUREFIRE-64:
-----------------------------------------

Dan, as I mentioned in the description of this issue, have you kept the new way of defining properties? I think it's much better (more compact) and I've already modified my projects to use this new way... The POM file I have migrated was reduced by 90 lines which is always nice!

Thanks

> The old syntax is:
> <property>
>   <name>myprop</name>
>   <value>myvalue</value>
> </property>
> New syntax (the one currently in SVN trunk):
> <myprop>myvalue</myprop>
> I much prefer the new compact syntax but we should offer backward compatibility for existing users.
> Please keep the new syntax somehow though (I've modified my builds to use it and I would hate to have to go back to the old syntax! :-)).
> Thanks
