Christian Semrau commented on MCOMPILER-62:
-------------------------------------------

I just noted that the documentation at
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/examples/pass-compiler-arguments.html
is currently telling me that giving multiple arguments as the value of a 
{{<compilerArgument>}} element is valid, which is not true.

"For such arguments, the Compiler Plugin's compilerArguments will be used." 
Note the plural, which is not used in the following code snippet!

{code:title=pass-compiler-arguments.html}
...
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.3.2</version>
        <configuration>
          <compilerArgument>-verbose -bootclasspath 
${java.home}\lib\rt.jar</compilerArgument>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
{code}

> Allow multiple options to be passed to compiler for options not supported by 
> the compiler mojo

>         Environment: Maven version: 2.0.7

> Look at the mail thread in maven user group:
> http://www.nabble.com/Not-able-to-pass-multiple-arguments-to-javac-tf4857909s177.html
> User may have to pass options to the underlying compiler that are not yet 
> supported by the mojo. Current implementation of the maven-compiler-plugin 
> allows user to specify only one option. Neither of the following techniques 
> work:
> <configuration>
>    <compilerArgument>-proc:none</compilerArgument>
>    <compilerArgument>-implicit</compilerArgument>
> </configuration>
> or
> <configuration>
>   <compilerArgument>-proc:none -impicit</compilerArgument>
> </configuration>
> In the first approach, only one of the compilerArgument is considered, in the 
> second approach since maven quotes the argument, it ends up as a single 
> argument to javac and hence becomes an invalid option.
> The best suggestion is to allow multiple compilerArgument -- may be something 
> like:
> <compilerArguments>
>   <compilerArgument/>
>   <compilerArgument/>
> </compilerArguments>
