--------------------------------------
Summary: Compiler plugin silently drops -XD flags when fork=false
Key: MCOMPILER-244
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCOMPILER-244
Project: Maven Compiler Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 3.3, 3.2, 3.1, 3.0
Reporter: Paweł Kozioł
I have Java code that uses two classes from private Java API (sun.security.\*).
When i tried to compile it using jdk1.8.0_45 it failed with error saying that
package sun.security.\* does not exist. I found that i should add flag
{{-XDignore.symbol.file}} to compiler arguments.
It turns out that Maven Compiler Plugin silently ignores that flag and it does
not work unless you also specify {{<fork>true</fork>}} ([thanks to karmakaze
from StackOverflow for sollution|http://stackoverflow.com/a/30472473])
If you cannot fix this to work with fork=false maybe you could add printing
warning/error to stdout?
