[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCOMPILER-44?page=comments#action_77177 ] Ian Springer commented on MCOMPILER-44: ---------------------------------------
Correction: The resources plugin allows the 'outputDirectory' prop to be modified, but the clean plugin does not. I will file another JIRA in http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCLEAN to request that that plugin also remove the read-only restriction for 'outputDirectory' . > 'outputDirectory' configuration property should not be read-only > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MCOMPILER-44 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCOMPILER-44 > Project: Maven 2.x Compiler Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.0.1 > Reporter: Ian Springer > > I am trying to set up a 'dev' build profile that, when enabled, will cause my > artifacts to be built directly to an exploded ejb-jar deployment dir, instead > of target/classes/. The purpose is to make the development process more > efficient by skipping a number of time-consuming intermediate mvn steps (i.e. > jarring the artifact, copying the jar to the local repo, unjarring the > artifact to its deploy/test location). > Since profiles do not allow you to override project.build.outputDirectory, I > proceeded to override the outputDirectory config props in the > maven-clean-plugin, the maven-compiler-plugin, and the > maven-resources-plugin. The maven-clean-plugin and the maven-resources-plugin > allow me to modify the outputDirectory without any complaints, but the > maven-compiler-plugin does not... It fails with the following error: > [INFO] Error configuring: org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin. > Reason: ERROR: Cannot override read-only parameter: outputDirectory in goal: > compiler:compile > Please make this property non-read-only. Making it read-only seriously limits > the flexibility of Maven2. > Thanks, > Ian -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
