----------------------------------------

             Summary: Feature request: In debug mode, print full output of 
javac (including stdout)
                 Key: MCOMPILER-407
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCOMPILER-407
             Project: Maven Compiler Plugin
          Issue Type: New Feature
    Affects Versions: 3.8.1
            Reporter: Manu Sridharan


Certain javac annotation processors and plugins like [The Checker 
Framework|https://checkerframework.org/] sometimes print useful diagnostics on 
stdout.  Currently, there is no way to see this output using the Maven Compiler 
Plugin, even when Maven is run with the -X option.  I suggest that when Maven 
is in debug mode, the plugin should show as a debug message the full stdout of 
javac.  This should also work if javac is forked.

If someone points me at the relevant code, I am happy to try to submit a pull 
request for this change.
