Description

The archetype:update-local-catalog step is not correctly updating the archetype-catalog.xml file.

It is taking the <name> element from the POM of the archetype and writing it as the <description> in the archetype-catalog.xml file.

Shouldn't it be using the <description> element itself (if provided, which is is)?

Eg, given this from the POM of the archetype:

<name>Project Accelerator - Sample Project.</name>
<description>WarpSpeed archetype for creating multi module project that has our EAR, EJB, WAR and Resource projects defined for us.</description>

The archetype-catalog.xml file is written out as:

<archetype>
<groupId>au.com.warpspeed.archetypes</groupId>
<artifactId>sample-project</artifactId>
<version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<description>Project Accelerator - Sample Project.</description>
</archetype>
