[jira] Closed: (MNG-1404) Provide informative messages when POM is invalid

["John Casey (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

     [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1404?page=all ]
     
John Casey closed MNG-1404:
---------------------------

      Assign To: John Casey
     Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version: 2.0.1

Did not apply patch; typo fix was already committed for MavenMetadataSource, and xpp3 error should not be wrapped in a ModelValidationResult (it's not part of the model validation), so I appended it to the message of the exception that is thrown.

> When a pom is invalid the error message should identify the problem. For example, in the POM below the closing "dependencies" element is misspelled, yet the error messages is only:
> [WARNING] POM for: 'springframework:spring:pom:1.2.6' does not appear to
> > be valid. Its will be ignored for artifact resolution.
> > Reason: Parse error reading POM
> > [DEBUG]   springframework:spring:jar:1.2.6 (selected for compile)
