Hi,

The problem is for other projects under the tools folder, for example, maven-ant-generator depends on maven-compiler-plugin which in turn depends on tuscany-eclipse-compiler. So it fails when you do a top-down build unless you have ever built the tuscany-eclipse-compiler alone.

Thanks,

It's a more general issue with Maven, which in a multi-module project Maven doesn't build a plugin module before the modules that depend on it, and that's why Luciano's fix attempt didn't work.

We'd see the same problem with our maven-wsdl2java plugin if it was not already published in a Maven repository.

I can see two solutions to this:
(a) publish a snapshot of the plugin
(b) add a 'setup' profile to the top pom to build it and run that profile first
