[jira] Commented: (MNG-2570) Maven needs to support multiple
logging levels
[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2570?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=247859#action_247859 ]
Costin Caraivan commented on MNG-2570:
--------------------------------------
I'm not sure it's the same thing as mentioned by the original reporter, but from what I saw while working with Maven and from what I see the developers needing, the default mode is ok (verbose).
The debug modes should be:
-X, --debug -> default debug output, without classloading information (no dependencies, and especially no managed dependencies)
-Xd, --extra-debug -> extra debug information, the current -X
The current debug mode usually has something like 1% useful information while debugging plugin problems, configuration problems. We have hundreds of thousands of lines of lines showing managed/transitive dependencies for big builds, when all we want to see is: what was the real parameter used by Maven when launching the jarsigner (for example)...

> The current logging levels are essentially verbose (default) and debug (-X). We need a slightly less verbose output so that things like compiler warnings and other output is actually visable to the developer. Currently it gets buried in all the noise.
