Konrad Windszus opened MSHARED-1079 and commented

It is not clear from the javadoc of MessageBuilder (https://maven.apache.org/shared/maven-shared-utils/apidocs/org/apache/maven/shared/utils/logging/MessageBuilder.html) that the toString() method is supposed to be called at the end to get the content's of the builder.
Please add JavaDoc for the toString method and in the best case add an explicit build method, which just calls toString internally.

Also it needs to be clarified if the MessageBuilder can be reused after toString has been called.
