[jira] Created: (MNG-3926) Spaces if properties are not preserved
if using CDATA
Spaces if properties are not preserved if using CDATA
-----------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-3926
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3926
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.0.9
Reporter: Stefan Franke
Using a property like this one:
<properties>
<cdata><![CDATA[ ]]></cdata>
</properties>
results into an empty property (see effective-pom):
<properties>
<cdata/>
</properties>
which is wrong.
See also the XML spec:
"Note that a CDATA section containing only white space or a reference to an entity whose replacement text is character references expanding to white space do not match the nonterminal S"
which also stats that white spaces inside CDATA must not be trimmed away.

Brett Porter updated MNG-3926:
------------------------------
Priority: Trivial (was: Major)
Fix Version/s: (was: 2.2.x (to be reviewed))
Backlog
a very minor issue, but we should be trimming the xml source by its rules and not the properties in the model

[jira] Commented: (MNG-3926) Spaces if properties are not preserved

Brett Porter commented on MNG-3926:
-----------------------------------
do you have a use case for this?
The property is recorded properly, however it is trimmed (as a property, not xml content). However, it works if there is something either side, or other cdata content.
As for the effective POM, the resulting POM is stripped of all directives, not as a way to preserve the original representation.

Stefan Franke commented on MNG-3926:
------------------------------------
one use case is this
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-eclipse-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<additionalConfig>
<file>
<name>.checkstyle</name>
<url>file://path/to/file</url>
<content>${varies}</content>
</file>
</additionalConfig>
</configuration>
if ${varies} is unset, the url is used.
if ${varies} is set its content is used.
But creating an empty file does not work.
