Issue Type: Bug Bug
Assignee: Unassigned
Components: core, maven
Created: 04/Apr/13 3:07 PM
Description:

The configuration of a "Invoke top-level Maven targets" build step in a Freestyle project, and the configuration of the Build section in a Maven project type are so completely different, that I don't even know where to begin.

Options are called differently, are in a different order, some are missing from the first, some are missing from the other. Imho, these should really be completely the same.

Missing on one side:

  • Properties: this nice textarea is missing completely from the maven project type, instead we have to use -D... in a single-line textfield
  • Use private Maven repository: the freestyle version is missing the "local to executor" option
  • Run headless: only available in Maven project
  • Maven Validation level: ditto

Naming inconsistencies:

  • JVM Options <-> MAVEN_OPTS: same thing, different names, also MAVEN_OPTS might sound to the unwary that you can put your properties here
  • "Goals" <-> "Goals and options": also it's an expandable textbox in Freestyle, but not in Maven project

Different order/section:

  • "Goals" and "Pom" fields are swapped
  • "Use custom workspace": Freestyle: hidden in "Advanced project options", maven: in main Build section
  • "Build Environment": Freestyle: above the Build section, Maven: below the Build section

There are some more options in Maven project, that only make sense there, so that's OK. But at least the rest should be identical.
