--------------------------------

             Summary: maven compiler plugin doesn't detect change in pom.xml
                 Key: MNG-5508
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5508
             Project: Maven 2 & 3
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Bootstrap & Build, Performance, Plugins and Lifecycle
    Affects Versions: 3.1.0
         Environment: any
            Reporter: Jigar Joshi
            Priority: Minor


Background:

we are using maven build to build around 200 project tree, change in one single 
module costs building whole tree, to avoid it we switched to incremental build 
and I wrote a plugin that will periodically do full clean build after 
configurable period of time

Issue:

maven-compiler-plugin supports incremental compilation and only compiles the 
source that was modified that is nice feature, however it is not quite working 
well in following cases

 - if there is a change in pom.xml (for example:change in dependency scope), it 
doesn't detect it as change and doesn't recompile that and all effecting 
projects
