Re: We need some explanation ...
Hi Vincent, The architecture is quite clear now, but there remains some questions: - I understand that when calling clover:instrument in any phase, this triggers a custom lifecycle (clover LC) that runs instrumentInternal and then runs the tests so that clover DB gets populated. This lifecycle is forked so that original sources are prevented from ending up in artifact. - the original question was about the use of process-sources: It seemed to me that coverage intsrumentation should be done after all sources are generated. Why is this not the case for clover ?

Yes, exactly. - the original question was about the use of process-sources: It seemed to me that coverage intsrumentation should be done after all sources are generated. Why is this not the case for clover ? The clover:instrumentInternal goal is bound to the generate-sources phase (the first phase for sources). The main reason is that any source generated is usually already tested (the generators are usually tested) and there's usually no need to write tests for it. Instrumenting the generated sources would skew the coverage result. Now I agree that it's possible that there are cases where you'd want the instrumentation to include generated sources. This is not supported as of now. Actually nobody has asked for this use case yet... Thanks -Vincent ___ Yahoo! Mail réinvente le mail ! Découvrez le nouveau Yahoo!

Re: We need some explanation ...
Thanks for the (quick :-)) answer. I agree that generated sources are usually tested and do not need specific tests, so instrumenting them may not be very useful as far as branch/line coverage is concerned. I can think however of a use case where you would need coverage of generated code. Imagine that your generator provides glue code between components/classes folloving some pattern of communication and that you want to cover with your tests the interaction between two classes. You would need instrumentation information for generated sources to link standard java method invocation in your classes with something in your glue code. This all depends on what you are trying to cover with your tests. All tools I am aware of gives you so-called branch or line coverage, but there exists different coverage information that would be often more useful to have.

Hi Arnaud, The clover plugin is presumably one of the most complex m2 plugin.

Re: We need some explanation ...
Good day to you, David, The generate-sources, phase is used for auto code generation. An example for this would be the maven-modello-plugin (see [1]) which allows the creation of Xpp3 Readers, Writers and the corresponding models. Running an XDoclet maven goal would most probably be bound here if that goal produces source codes. For the process-sources, its the phase used when what you're processing (prior to compilation) is the sources themselves. hhmm..can't think of a good example though... The generate-resources phase on the other hand, is like the generate-sources phase, except that this auto generates resources (i.e. xmls, property files) instead of codes. An example which uses that is the maven-eclipse-plugin. the eclipse:eclipse goal which generates the .classpath and .project resources is bound to that phase (see [2] for the released documentation and for [3] for the staged unreleased documentation). And if you have an XDoclet goal which produces resources such as schemas, that goal would most likely be bound to this goal. And as for the process-resources phase, this phase handles the resources-related processes prior to compilation. An example of this is the maven-resources-plugin, which filters and copies resources (see [4] for the released documentation and for [5] for the staged unreleased documentation). And example of a resource would be a property file. For more information about the lifecycle, kindly see [6]. And if you want to suggest somethings or have some feebdacks or something, you might want to create a jira issue in [7] under the Documentation: Introduction component. In relation to the eclipse plugin, only one goal (that i know of that works) is bound to a lifecycle phase, and that's the eclipse:eclipse goal which is bound to the generate-resources phase. And with regards to the goals, the current plugin documentations now have their goals documented. However, not all of these new plugin documentations have been released yet (plugin documentations released after Oct 16, 2006 are probably the latest ones..since it was the last time [8] was updated). But nonetheless, if you have any comments about the plugin documentation, you can create a jira issue under that plugin ([9] for maven-eclipse-plugin, [10] for maven-resources-pluign, etc). And lastly, goals are plugin-specific (a plugin consists of 1 or more goals). Phases are were a goal can bind to so that you can use a lifecycle (sequence of phases) to execute your goals in a specific manner. At least, these are my notes. :-) Did I answer your question?
