-----------------------------------------
Hi Olivier,
There is a multi-module maven project with 30 modules. Each module's build
takes about 2 min (with test execution, static code analysis and so on). Whole
project build takes 1 hour - it is too long to produce "fast feedback". A
commit usually modifies 2-3 modules in my case. So the best way is to rebuild
only changed modules and modules that depends on them. I want to create a maven
plug-in which checks source code and dependencies of a module for modifications
using checksums (MD5, SHA, etc) to determine neediness of the module rebuild.
If no sources were changed, no dependencies were changed and module artifact is
already in the local repository, then no rebuild of the module required. It can
dramatically reduce time of the total build in many cases. But it looks like
there is no standard way to terminate module's build with SUCCESS status.
> Add ability to interrupt a build with SUCCESS status from maven plugins.

> Add ability to successfully finish a build from maven plugin. It can help to
> create maven plugins for build optimization. Currently we can interrupt a
> build only to fail it (by throwing an exception from the execute method of a
> mojo).
> This functionality can be easily implemented by adding BuildSuccessException
> to the maven core and modifying LifecycleModuleBuilder and
> DefaultBuildPluginManager to process this exception and finish the build as
> succeed. Any custom maven plugin can throw BuildSuccessException to indicate
> the build is OK and no further steps are needed to be executed.
