Hello, For a while now, I have noticed sporadic problems when using Maven. For example: a maven build results in errors on a project. If I then check out the project into another directory, the project builds without any problems. The content of both directories is identical. I use 'mvn clean install' .
More in general: if I have problems like these, a touch of all files in the project seems to resolve them. Therefore it seems to me that the file properties seems to be the cause. I'm suspecting timestamps, because a touch always magically solves these problems. However I don't understand why this could make a difference? If I run a 'mvn clean' or just manually remove the target directory, everything should be rebuilt, and timestamps shouldn't matter right? However this seems to be the case. I get the impression some files are sometimes skipped for compilation by maven, causing errors. Another thing that could also be a factor is that I am using GIT to manage the project files in the faulty directory. However I don't really see how this could influence the build ... Does this ring a bell with anyone? Can anyone point me in the right direction on solving this issue? Maven version info below.
