                 Key: MCOMPILER-120
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCOMPILER-120
             Project: Maven 2.x Compiler Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.1
            Reporter: Christopher Webster


If I write a pom file like the following:

...
<plugin>
                        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                        <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
                        <version>2.1</version>
                        <configuration>
                            <compilerId>javac</compilerId>
                                <source>1.6</source>
                                <target>1.6</target>
                                
                                <compilerArguments>
                                        <Werror /> 
                                        <Xlint:all />
                                </compilerArguments>
                                <showDeprecation>true</showDeprecation>
                        </configuration>
                </plugin>

and if there are only warnings, then the build will not fail as intended by the 
compiler Argument. The reason is that in compileInProcess the exit code from 
javac is only considered if there are no messages. In the case of treating 
warnings as errors, there will be messages but no errors so the intention of 
the build failure is lost.
