Hi all
I've been working on a couple of plugins with documentation and
documentation review. One thing differs when running mvn site for a
normal plugin versus a plugin in the sandbox.
For a normal plugin, like maven-javadoc-plugin, you get 4 Project Reports:
* JavaDocs
* Plugin documentation
* Source Xref
* Test Source Xref
This is all well, the reports being inherited from
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-plugins:2-SNAPSHOT
For a sandbox plugin, like maven-changes-plugin, you get 11 Project Reports:
* Changes Report [1]
* Checkstyle [2]
* Cobertura Test Coverage [2]
* JavaDocs
* Jira Report [1]
* Maven Surefire Report [2]
* Plugin documentation
* PMD Report [2]
* Source Xref
* Tag List [2]
* Test Source Xref
Two of them are configured in the plugin itself [1], making it a total
of 9 inherited Project Reports. The other 5 extra reports [2] are, well
extra, but they do appear in the parents parent:
org.apache.maven:maven-parent:2
This is when thing turn weird: both plugins inherit from the same
parent! The only thing I can think of that differs is that
maven-javadoc-plugin is a module in the parent POM but
maven-changes-plugin is not.
However they got there I have found a configuration error regarding the
checkstyle plugin. It's not configured at all, meaning tons of errors in
any Maven source file, because it defaults to using sun_checks instead
of maven_checks. Shouldn't this be configured in the Maven parent POM?
