Brett Porter updated MNG-3300:
------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 2.0.x
> Nested compile source roots in effective POM cause bad Eclipse build path
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-3300
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3300
> Project: Maven 2
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.0.7
> Environment: Maven 2.0.7, JDK 1.5.0_12, WinXP
> Reporter: Benjamin Bentmann
> Fix For: 2.0.x
>
> Attachments: nested-source-roots.patch, nested-sources.zip
>
>
> Source generating plugins like for JavaCC or JFlex usually add their output
> folder to the POM as a compile source root. If these source directories
> happen to be nested, i.e. "src/main/java" and additional something like
> "src/main/java/org/apache", mvn eclipse:eclipse produces the following bad
> .classpath contents with overlapping build paths:{code:xml}
> <classpath>
> <classpathentry kind="src" path="src/main/java"/>
> <classpathentry kind="src" path="src/main/java/org/apache"/>
> ...
> </classpath>
> {code}
> While this issues relates to MECLIPSE-114, I really think my problem is
> caused by Maven.
> Though the maven-eclipse-plugin causes the problem to manifest itself, it
> might not be the proper place to solve it as it appears to be a more general
> issue (i.e. the Maven Eclipse Integration might also be affected, though I
> did not test this). Surely, each and every plugin developer could be told to
> check for source directory nesting but I consider this an error-prone
> approach. I would rather appreciate either that
> MavenProject.addCompileSourceRoot() automatically ignores nested source
> directories (if such a general change is acceptable) or that new methods in
> MavenProject are introduced that allow for conditional addition of source
> roots only if they do not nest with existing roots such that plugin
> developers can easily fix the problem.
