-----------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
Assignee: Hervé Boutemy
I chose "Not A Problem" in the resolution list (I'm not convinced of this
value, but could not find better alternative)
what is important is to be ok that we can't do anything in
maven-compiler-plugin if the compiler is at fault
> 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
> Assignee: Hervé Boutemy
> 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.
