[jira] Commented: (WSCOMMONS-505) Build Error when creating source jar fie on modules that do not have source directory

["Andreas Veithen (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/WSCOMMONS-505?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12759703#action_12759703 ] 

Andreas Veithen commented on WSCOMMONS-505:
-------------------------------------------

The route cause of this issue is that the Axiom POMs don't specify the versions for all plugins. The super POM in Maven >= 2.0.9 will default the version of the maven-source-plugin to 2.0.4, which doesn't produce this error. Maven <= 2.0.8 will pick up the latest version of this plugin, namely 2.1, and the behavior of this version is different when there are no source files.

I will change the POMs to specify plugin versions, so that the build will be predictable with Maven <= 2.0.8, but your are strongly advised to upgrade to a more recent version of Maven.

> When building axiom modules that do not have  the source directory, an error occurs with the maven-source-plugin with the error 
> " Error creating source archive: You must set at least one file"
> This occurs in the axiom-tests and axiom-osgi modules since they do not have source files. 
> The solution is in the maven-source-plugin configuration to indicate that the pom.xml is always to be included 
>  <configuration>
>     <includePom>true</includePom>
> </configuration>
