This is a bug but will likely be hard to fix. I am not even sure it is possible to fix. What may work, is to create new BuildContext for each mojo executed from within MavenBuilder during incremental build. This build context should original resource delta that triggered the build and any changes done by mojos already executed during this build.
And to be clear, I have no immediate plans to look at this unless somebody provides a quality patch. -- Regards, Igor On 12-09-14 4:40 AM, Andrius Velykis wrote:
Hello, I have an issue with m2e when chaining plugins in Maven, i.e. when the output folder of first plugin is used by second plugin as an input folder. A small example below: 1. my first plugin generates JFlex source files out of XML using XSLT and puts everything into /target/generated-sources/src-jflex. This is bound to 'generate-sources' phase. 2. then JFlex plugin uses the /target/generated-sources/src-jflex folder as input (lexDefinitions), and generates Java source files to /target/generated-sources/jflex. This is bound to 'process-sources' phase to ensure that the results of step 1 are visible to JFlex plugin. This works correctly from the command line, using 'mvn clean install'. Now I try using it with m2e. I have created a connector for my plugin (step 1), which uses `buildContext.refresh(src-jflex-dir)` to refresh the generated JFlex sources. However, when I run it in m2e, JFlex plugin's connector cannot find the generated source directory in the Workspace and therefore does not execute. After a little debugging, I see that in org.eclipse.m2e.core.internal.builder.MavenBuilderImpl#build(), all build participants are launched in the same loop, and resource refresh is performed only after all participants execute. This looks too late in my case, because I need the output folder from step1 to be refreshed before step2 participant is executed. Am I using it wrong? Is there any way to achieve that the folder is refreshed before JFlex plugin starts the build? Or some option to get m2e respect different build phases to achieve the order?
