Robert Scholte commented on MCOMPILER-369:
------------------------------------------

It looks like this can't be fixed in the code. I suggest to add an entry to the 
[Frequently Asked 
Questions|https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-compiler-plugin/faq.html] page.

> Adding module-info.java breaks JMH annotation processor

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCOMPILER-369
>             Project: Maven Compiler Plugin
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 3.8.0
>            Reporter: Gili
>            Priority: Major

> # Open testcase
>  # Run {{clean install}}. Notice that the benchmarks run.
>  # Open {{pom.xml}} and comment-out the {{<annotationProcessorPaths> 
> section.}}
>  # Run {{clean install}}. Notice that the annotation processor does not run 
> and the benchmarks break.
>  # Delete/rename {{module-info.java}}.
>  # Run {{clean install}}. Notice that the benchmarks work again.
> The documentation for {{<annotationProcessorPaths>}} states that by default 
> annotation processors are detected from the classpath. It seems that adding 
> {{module-info.java}} breaks that somehow, which is weird/unexpected because 
> JMH exists as a dependency outside the newly-declared module.
> I did two things to prove that the annotation processor is not being invoked 
> in step 4:
>  # Notice that {{target/test-classes/META-INF}} is not created.
>  # Place a breakpoint in {{org.openjdk.jmh.generators.BenchmarkProcessor}} 
> and notice that it is never even constructed.
> I tried digging into the maven-compiler-plugin and plexus-compiler 
> source-code but couldn't figure out where the problem is. The only workaround 
> I found is to specify {{annotationProcessorPaths}} manually but it took me 
> half a day to track down this problem.
> Any idea what is going on? Is this a bug in the plugin(s)?
