             Summary: Make compiler output paths relative to the project or module root
                 Key: MCOMPILER-231
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCOMPILER-231
             Project: Maven Compiler Plugin
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: David M. Lloyd
            Priority: Minor


Using the latest 3.2-SNAPSHOT as of the time of this report, all compiler messages which start with a file name are printing the absolute file name.  There should be a filter step which checks a message to see if it starts with the project or module path, and if so, makes the path relative, to reduce screen real-estate consumption.

It seems to me that the compiler plugin had this capability at some point in the past (though maybe I've just dreamed it)?  I suppose it's even possible that if it did regress, that it was one of my patches that did it (though I don't recall seeing this kind of code anywhere).
