Okay, I've researched, and I can't reproduce the problem. When we first 
encountered the problem, it was with Maven 3.1.1 and maven-compiler-plugin 3.1, 
running in Bamboo. Bamboo's build log is as follows (slightly obfuscated):

Seeing this difference, my first thought was that Bamboo was dropping stderr. 
So I redirected stderr to /dev/null, yielding this:

So then I changed to Maven 3.5.0 and maven-compiler-plugin 3.7.0 and repeated 
the same steps. The resulting output is identical, with the expected exceptions 
(plugin versions, time taken, the exact stacktrace where it overflowed, and one 
added blank line before {{[ERROR] -> [Help 1]}}. 

I can't figure out why Bamboo's recorded output would be missing these lines:
{code}[INFO] -------------------------------------------------------------

[INFO] 1 error

And then later, again missing:

Bamboo is just parroting the output from Maven here, so I'm disinclined to 
believe it would be the problem. Is there some argument, variable, or other 
condition that would cause Maven or the compiler plugin to omit those parts of 
the output?

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCOMPILER-325
>             Project: Maven Compiler Plugin
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 3.7.0
>            Reporter: Jake Robb
>            Priority: Minor
>
> Context: 
> [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48775213/maven-compilation-error-without-any-errors-from-the-compiler]
> If the Java code being compiled contains a chain of method calls that is too 
> long to fit in javac's stack, javac will throw a StackOverflowError and exit.
> The resulting output indicates that javac errored, but does not show the SOE, 
> nor which source file caused it. (It'd be nice if it actually pointed out the 
> problem, but that's on javac, not on the Maven plugin.)
> For more recent versions of the plugin, if {{verbose=true}}, the plugin 
> output includes the files being compiled as they go, and so the last file 
> output is helpful, but it still doesn't indicate what went wrong. -X and -e 
> args to Maven are also not helpful.
> In my case, the failure occurred using default settings for stack size (I 
> think it's 1MB) when compiling a test case that chained together 673 builder 
> methods, e.g.
> {code:java}
> return new 
> MyBuilder().foo(a1).foo(a2).foo(...).foo(a672).foo(a673).build();{code}
> I assume this problem is not unique to StackOverflowErrors and would affect 
> any thrown Error from javac.
> The plugin should be updated to capture javac's error output and include it 
> when applicable.
