[jira] [Created] (MNG-6074) Maven should print a warning if no
model version has been set in a POM file.
Christian Schulte created MNG-6074:
--------------------------------------
Summary: Maven should print a warning if no model version has been set in a POM file.
Key: MNG-6074
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6074
Project: Maven
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Christian Schulte
Assignee: Christian Schulte
Priority: Critical
Fix For: 3.4.0
Maven currently only validates the model version to equal {{4.0.0}} when set. The XML element is optional. Starting with Maven 3.4.0 a warning message should be printed whenever no model version has been set so that it becomes possible to use that version to decide about Maven behaviour. For example: In Maven 3.5 we could add support for a new model version {{4.1.0}} which may be used to decide about how Maven 3.5 should behave. Behaviour for model version {{4.0.0}} will be the same as in Maven 3.4. Behaviour for model version {{4.1.0}} could be different. For this the model version needs to be set.
