Compiling without javac

Hi everyone

I can't get maven-compiler-plugin to work with AspectJ or Jikes. I've
followed the official directions at http://tinyurl.com/woqoa but always
receive:

[INFO] No such compiler 'aspectj'.

Or:

[INFO] No such compiler 'jikes'.

This error is from the following line of AbstractCompilerMojo source:

  compilerManager.getCompiler(compilerId);

I have registered the plugin as follows:

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
  <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>2.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
  <configuration>
    <compilerId>aspectj</compilerId>
    <verbose>true</verbose>
    <failOnError>false</failOnError>
    <source>1.3</source>
    <target>1.3</target>
  </configuration>
  <dependencies>
    <dependency>
      <groupId>org.codehaus.plexus</groupId>
      <artifactId>plexus-compiler-aspectj</artifactId>
      <version>1.3</version>
    </dependency>
  </dependencies>
</plugin>

BTW I know I can use the AspectJ plugin instead, but I need
<failOnError>false</failOnError> support with AspectJ and/or Jikes.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Cheers
Ben

I have figured it out. The instructions (http://tinyurl.com/woqoa) state
1.5.3 is the version for plexus-compiler-*. There is no 1.5.3 for
plexus-compiler-aspectj or plexus-compiler-jikes. So I used 1.3, which
there is (under <groupdId>plexus</groupId>, not
<groupId>org.codehaus.plexus</groupId>). 1.3 simply doesn't work, at
least with maven-compiler-plugin version 2.1-SNAPSHOT.

I couldn't locate a 1.6-SNAPSHOT of plexus-compiler-aspectj (or jikes
for that matter), only plexus-compiler-javac and plexus-compiler-csharp
at http://snapshots.repository.codehaus.org/org/codehaus/plexus/.

This led me to the Subversion repository for plexus-components, where I
checked out http://svn.codehaus.org/plexus/plexus-components/trunk/ and
was able to mvn install from the plexus-compiler directory. Great!
Except plexus-compiler/pom.xml includes as a module
plexus-compiler/plexus-compilers/pom.xml, and the latter does NOT
include either plexus-compilers-aspectj or plexus-compilers-jikes or
plexus-compilers-eclipse (it only includes plexus-compilers-javac and
plexus-compilers-csharp). When I changed into the
plexus-compilers-aspectj directory, I could mvn install it successfully.

I was unable to build plexus-compilers-jikes. A test failed.

I was able to build plexus-compilers-eclipse.

Would the following be possible?:

1. Add plexus-compilers-aspectj, plexus-compilers-eclipse (and hopefully
plexus-compilers-jikes despite its error and requirement for jikes in
the path to run the test) included in the <modules> of
plexus-compiler/plexus-compilers/pom.xml.

2. Have their builds published to
http://snapshots.repository.codehaus.org/org/codehaus/plexus/ like
happens for plexus-compilers-javac and plexus-compilers-csharp.

3. Maybe update the instructions (http://tinyurl.com/woqoa) to note that
1.6-SNAPSHOT should be used if compilation with
plexus-compilers-aspectj, plexus-compilers-eclipse or
plexus-compilers-jikes is desired.

Thanks
Ben
