Hervé Boutemy commented on MCOMPILER-249:
-----------------------------------------
ok, I was able to reproduce the issue: I moved the issue to MCOMPILER, since
you problem is with compile
I ran {{mvn -X compile}} to check if the problem was in javac compiler or in
maven-compiler-plugin
I launched the javac command by hand, and it did not produce output, nor failure
I tried with JDK8, which cleanly fails
Then I'll close the issue as "not a bug": the bug is in javac compiler from
JDK7, fixed in JDK8
> Maven gives successful Build message and creates empty jar and fails to find
> compile time issues.

> Key: MCOMPILER-249
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCOMPILER-249
> Project: Maven Compiler Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.2, 3.3
> Environment: apache-maven-3.2.3, jdk1.7.0_67, Eclipse Kepler, WIndows7
> Reporter: vijay
> Labels: build, maven
> Attachments: AnnotationConsumer.zip,
> CustomAnnotations-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.zip, CustomAnnotations.zip

>
> 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.
