'outputDirectory' configuration property should not be read-only
----------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MCOMPILER-44
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCOMPILER-44
Project: Maven 2.x Compiler Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.0.1
Reporter: Ian Springer
I am trying to set up a 'dev' build profile that, when enabled, will cause my
artifacts to be built directly to an exploded ejb-jar deployment dir, instead
of target/classes/. The purpose is to make the development process more
efficient by skipping a number of time-consuming intermediate mvn steps (i.e.
jarring the artifact, copying the jar to the local repo, unjarring the artifact
to its deploy/test location).
Since profiles do not allow you to override project.build.outputDirectory, I
proceeded to override the outputDirectory config props in the
maven-clean-plugin, the maven-compiler-plugin, and the maven-resources-plugin.
The maven-clean-plugin and the maven-resources-plugin allow me to modify the
outputDirectory without any complaints, but the maven-compiler-plugin does
not... It fails with the following error:
[INFO] Error configuring: org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-compiler-plugin.
Reason: ERROR: Cannot override read-only parameter: outputDirectory in goal:
compiler:compile
Please make this property non-read-only. Making it read-only seriously limits
the flexibility of Maven2.
Thanks,
Ian
