<outputDirectory> incorrectly evaluates ${project.build.directory} as 
current-dir relative
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MCOMPILER-51
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCOMPILER-51
             Project: Maven 2.x Compiler Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
         Environment: Mac OS X 10.4.8, JDK 1.5.0_06
            Reporter: Matt Bishop
            Priority: Minor


This affects 2.0.4, I have not tested on other versions.

If a pom.xml's ${project.build.directory} is set to an absolute path and the 
same pom.xml's project/build/outputDirectory references this property, the 
compiler sends built classes to a path relative to the current dir.  However, 
if the outputDirectory property is hard-coded to the absolute path, then the 
build classes are properly dropped in the absolute path.  Example:

<build>
  <directory>/Volumes/RamDisk/target</directory>
  <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/classes</outputDirectory>

Incorrectly sends javac output to 
/Users/matt/myProject/Volumes/RamDisk/target/classes

However:


<build>
  <directory>/Volumes/RamDisk/target</directory>
  <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/classes</outputDirectory>

Correctly sends javac output to /Volumes/RamDisk/target/classes


As a note, other users of an absolute ${project.build.directory} handle the 
path correctly, such as the maven-war-plugin.
