Yoav Shapira commented on MCHECKSTYLE-54: ----------------------------------------- This issue also affects Maven 2.0.4 and 2.0.5, not just 2.1. I've tested and confirmed the presence of this issue on Windows XP and Linux (Fedora Core), JDK 5 and JDK 6 alike. I've sent full details of my situation to the Maven users list just now. Having <scope>provided</scope> is fairly common, as you know. Many Java webapps, for example, include the servlet-api, jsp-api, and related jars with provided scope on their classpath. So here's my vote for fixing it soon ;) > checkstyle:check does not see provided scope dependencies > --------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MCHECKSTYLE-54 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCHECKSTYLE-54 > Project: Maven 2.x Checkstyle Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.1 > Reporter: Stephen Duncan Jr > Priority: Critical > > Running checkstyle:check against a project that uses Exceptions from > dependencies that are provided scope causes checktyle errors such as the > following: > <file > name="/share/duncans/workspace/eclipse/cdcie-webapp-feedreader/src/main/java/mil/jfcom/cie/portal/feedreader/converter/ConverterImpl.java"> > <error line="0" severity="error" message="Got an exception - > java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to get class information for > ValidationException." source="com.puppyc > rawl.tools.checkstyle.TreeWalker"/> > These errors go away when the scope is changed to compile. This does not > happen for checkstyle:checkstyle; the report correct indicates no checkstyle > errors. This is preventing us from using the checkstyle plugin to enforce > checkstyle rules. -- 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
