                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-5865
             Project: Maven
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Bootstrap & Build
    Affects Versions: 3.2.3
         Environment: apache-maven-3.2.3, jdk1.7.0_67, Eclipse Kepler, WIndows7
            Reporter: vijay
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: waiting-for-feedback


I have created one maven  project "AnnotationConsumer" which uses custom 
annotation "@COBDate". This custom annotation is present in another maven 
project "CustomAnnotations". Now the customannotation jar is empty and does not 
contain any annotations. So ideally build of project "AnnotationConsumer"  
should have been failed with error message like COBDate not found or 
compilation fails. But the thing is that in eclipse Maven  Build run it 
completes successfully without any error message and creates empty jar file 
AnnotationConsumer.jar. 
I tried to build project "AnnotationConsumer" from command prompt also with the 
same result.

This looks major issue because build creates empty jar but gives successful 
build  message, creating confusion.
