James Wen commented on MCOMPILER-274: ------------------------------------- I'm not sure what you're suggesting here [~gslowikowski] ? > "Compilation failure" message should say what actually went wrong > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MCOMPILER-274 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCOMPILER-274 > Project: Maven Compiler Plugin > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 3.1, 3.5.1 > Reporter: Trejkaz > Attachments: out.txt > > > I tried to build jruby 9.0.5.0, which uses Maven to run the build. It fails > to compile, but gives me a useless error message: > [ERROR] Failed to execute goal > org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin:3.1:compile (default-compile) > on project jruby-core: Compilation failure -> [Help 1] > When compilation fails, Maven should tell me what actually went wrong, so > that I can fix it. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
