Duplicate compiler errors ------------------------- Key: MNG-3733 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3733 Project: Maven 2 Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.0.7 Reporter: Trevor Harmon Priority: Minor
I often get duplicate Java compiler errors when building with Maven. Here's how to reproduce: mvn archetype:create -DarchetypeGroupId=org.apache.maven.archetypes -DgroupId=com.mycompany.app -DartifactId=my-app Then change App.java to this: package com.mycompany.app; interface Foo { void bar(); } public class App implements Foo {} Running "mvn compile" at this point produces: ... [INFO] Compilation failure /Users/trevor/Desktop/test/maven/my-app/src/main/java/com/mycompany/app/App.java:[7,7] com.mycompany.app.App is not abstract and does not override abstract method bar() in com.mycompany.app.Foo /Users/trevor/Desktop/test/maven/my-app/src/main/java/com/mycompany/app/App.java:[7,7] com.mycompany.app.App is not abstract and does not override abstract method bar() in com.mycompany.app.Foo ... Compiling the same code with javac gives only one. Seems like a bug in Maven itself. It is logging both the exception and the nested compile exception (shown by running with -e). It should just show the actual failure. -- 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
