maven-csharp-source-plugin:process-classes messes up outputDirectory and thereby indirectly messes up release plugin --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-2602 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2602 Project: Maven 2 Issue Type: Bug Components: Sandbox Environment: Windows XP Reporter: James Carpenter Priority: Critical Within the csharp plugins org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-csharp-source-plugin:process-classes is registered at the process-classes phase. Within this plugin the execute method resets the output directory to be that of the actual artifact (target/dotnet-assembly/somelib.dll) rather than the directory which it was set to (target/dotnet-assembly). The short javadoc within org.apache.maven.plugin.csharp.source.ProcessClassesMojo says: ----------- This Mojo adds the result of the compile to the classpath elements This is required by the NUnitMojo. ------------ As it turns out this has very negative side affects. If one tries to run multiple goals at once (mvn deploy site-deploy), the first goal is very likely to mess up the effective pom for the following goal. This is what happens to the release plugin. During release:perform the release plugin uses the plexus command line tools to run "mvn --no-plugin-updates --variousOtherFlags deploy site-deploy" within target/checkout. As you might imagine this really messes things up, such that the site-deploy fails as it tries to find target/checkout/target/dotnet-assembly/somelib.dll/somelib.dll. In summary a better way to keep the NUnit plugin happy must be found, as the current solution is very problematic. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
