--------------------------------------

             Summary: Review the MavenCoreFacet for exporting problems like model issues and dependency resolution failures to consumers
                 Key: FORGE-1158
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/FORGE-1158
             Project: Forge
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: Build Tools - Maven
    Affects Versions: 1.4.1.Final
            Reporter: Vineet Reynolds
             Fix For: 2.x Future

>From FORGE-1133, FORGE-1134 and FORGE-1136, it became imperative to ensure that consumers of the Maven Core facet (or it's equivalent) in Forge 2 should have access to any problems encountered in dependency resolution.

The list of problem includes any problems found in the project's model (like an incorrectly structured POM), but also includes dependency collection and resolution failures.

Not all of the above described problems should necessarily result in  exceptions being thrown to consumers of the API. We could change the design of the Facet to do this as part of this task, but that may not be necessary and may not be optimal.

Consumers may also want to access the problems encountered via another API so that they may be better equipped to deal with the failure after inspecting it further.

Discuss (and create sub-tasks).
