[jira] [Commented] (MRELEASE-1008) Changed formatting of pom file
for multiline attributes during version bump
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRELEASE-1008?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16953500#comment-16953500 ]
John Lin commented on MRELEASE-1008:
------------------------------------
Maven Release Plugin use JDOM to write XML documents: [https://github.com/apache/maven-release/blob/master/maven-release-manager/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/shared/release/transform/jdom/JDomModelETL.java#L211-L231]
Since JDOM doesn't support modifying the XML document without changing the original XML format, this issue seems to be unsolvable.
There may be some other opensource projects mentioned [here|https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2499011/modify-xml-node-but-keep-the-xml-file-format-intact] to modify XML document while keeping the original XML format, but they all look like dead projects and are not being maintained.
