I agree with you. ksh is exceptional. Smilie

My post isn't intended to suggest that bash (or dash or bourne sh) violate the standard -- I'm aware that POSIX allows a shell to execute each component of a pipeline in either the current environment or a subshell (ksh is compliant in this respect); the post is merely a response to methyl's rumination on the popularity of the idiom, identifying one popular resource which promotes it.

In my opinion, the ksh approach makes life a little easier. But, if I depend on it in a script, I always explicitly require ksh in the shebang.

pom_xpath_inject

POM_XPATH_INJECT(7)						Java Packages Tools					       POM_XPATH_INJECT(7)

NAME

       pom_xpath_inject - inject XML code into POM file

SYNOPSIS

       %pom_xpath_inject XPath [XML-code] [POM-location]

DESCRIPTION

       This macro patches specified POM file appending some code as childreen of all XML nodes described by the XPath expression.

       XPath is an expression describing a set of XML nodes in the POM file to which child code is to be appended. It must be a properly formated
       XPath 1.0 expression, as described in http://www.w3.org/TR/xpath/.

       POM location can be either a full path to the POM file, or a path to the directory containing pom.xml. If POM location is not given then
       pom.xml from current working directory is used.

EXAMPLES

       %pom_xpath_inject pom:project "<packaging>war</packaging>" - this call sets packaging of POM in current working directory to war.

BUGS

       POM files use a specific namespace - http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0. Currently this namespace needs to be explicitly specified in all
       XPath POM macros by prefixing all node names with pom:.
