Tom Guyette commented on MNG-2795:
----------------------------------

It's not clear why this bug was closed.

We're seeing this exact issue -- checkstyle failing when a parent pom defines a 
dependency on a jar that contains the configuration xml file.

We see it in Maven 2.0.5 and still in Maven 2.0.7.  Works fine in Maven 2.0.4.

> I had a problem when executing the Checkstyle plugin (version 2.1) with the 
> pre-release of Maven 2.0.5. So I dug a bit to see if this could be related to 
> maven core or not, and here is what I found.
> I isolated the code that breaks the build in the checkstyle plugin: it 
> happens when the plugin tries to load my Checkstyle configuration file, which 
> is actually located in a JAR that is specified in the build extensions. The 
> code lies in the Locator#resolveLocation() method:
>                 // Attempt a Resource.
>                  URL url = this.getClass().getClassLoader().getResource( 
> location );
> This code returns null for the "url" variable, which in turns breaks the 
> plugin because it doesn't find any configuration file.
> I haven't had the time to dig more into it, but I found the following issue 
> that might be related to this problem: "MNG-2228 : Classloader problem 
> loading jars from build extensions". Brett and Carlos worked on it and fixed 
> it, so maybe they could tell more about it.
> I attached the logs of the execution with Maven 2.0.4 (which works fine) and 
> Maven 2.0.5 (which breaks). I haven't had the time yet to dig further into 
> that problem.
