Checkstyle has trouble locating config file using build extensions in a
multi-module project
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MCHECKSTYLE-73
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCHECKSTYLE-73
Project: Maven 2.x Checkstyle Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.1
Environment: Windows 2000 Workstation / Windows Server 2003
Reporter: Ian Rowlands
Priority: Minor
The example used to configure a multi-module project fails to work when you add
additional java code to the project containing the config file.
To reproduce:
1. Create 2 projects (call them A and Z). A is the parent of Z. Z contains
the code, and is where you run the "site" command from.
2. Create another project (called "Build"). This contains the checkstyle
config file.
3. Configure project A to use Build as an extension (as specified in
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-checkstyle-plugin/examples/multi-module-config.html).
4. Run "mvn site" in project Z, after deploying the other projects.
5. Add some java code to project Build, and deploy it.
6. Run "mvn site" in project Z, which produces the following error:
Embedded error: Error rendering Maven report: Unable to find configuration
file location.
As soon as you take out the java code, everything goes back to normal.
There is a workaround - set project Build as a plugin dependency. This has no
problems in both cases.
