compiler sets artifact file to target/classes, even if nothing is compiled
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MCOMPILER-94
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCOMPILER-94
Project: Maven 2.x Compiler Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.0.2
Reporter: Brett Porter
consider the following parent project:
{code:xml}
<project>
...
<packaging>pom</packaging>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>compile</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
...
{code}
This is technically incorrect, you're asking to compile a project with no
sources, but it is needed for inheritence. The compiler should gracefully skip
all functions, however it sets the artifact from the POM to the target/classes
directory, which is incorrect if nothing was compiled.
