Herve Boutemy updated MCOMPILER-174:
------------------------------------
Description:
When you set a source file as
{code:xml} <configuration>
<excludes>
<exclude>com/you/example.java</exclude>
</excludes>
</configuration>{code}
it doesn't pass the file in with the list of .java files to javac. However, it
still passes in the ./src/ directory under the -sourcepath option to the javac
command. Thus, javac still knows that the file exists and can try to compile it
anyways under certain circumstances.
The passing of ./src/ under -sourcepath is redundant anyways, as every single
file to be compiled is passed (in my case, all 391 source files) to javac. The
only possible result from passing ./src/ (or at least the only one I can think
of) is that a file which is in your ./src/ directory yet excluded by the
maven-compiler-plugin can still be seen (and compiled) by javac. This can cause
inexplicable results and a lot of confusion since it operates in a
counter-intuitive way.
