Raymond DeCampo created MSOURCES-115: ----------------------------------------
Summary: aggregate-sources yields different results based on reactor Key: MSOURCES-115 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSOURCES-115 Project: Maven Source Plugin Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 3.0.1 Reporter: Raymond DeCampo The main idea here is that depending on whether a particular project is built from the parent project or on its own, the sources jar generated by aggregate-sources may be different. IMO this attacks the repeat-ability of the build. The root cause is that aggregate-sources pulls in all the sources in the reactor. Consider a three layer structure. One parent project at the top level, say foo-parent. Then two child modules at the next level, say foo-client and foo-server. Then some number of children of foo-client and foo-server where the actual Java code lives. The poms for foo-server and foo-client have aggregate-sources set up. If a build is executed directly on foo-client for example, then the resulting source foo-client-sources-*.jar will have the source from the children of foo-client. If a build is executed from foo-parent, both foo-client and foo-server are included in the reactor. Now the resulting foo-client-sources-*.jar includes the source code from foo-server's children as well as its own. I would expect that the aggregate-sources target would only include the source of the children of the current project instead of the source from any project in the reactor. I would also expect that the build should result identical artifacts whether or not it is invoked from the parent project or not. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
