- I compile the project with maven and use the maven-antrun-plugin as documented on your site. - I have a second project that uses the jar file generated by my groovy project. All the code in my second project is currently Java.
You can then probably easily exclude Groovy as the culprit by checking if the jar contains the missing class.
If I change the code in my second project (uses the jar file from groovy project), and run the command "mvn surefire:test" I will occasionally get the above uncompilable code issue. Running "mvn clean install" has so far always fixed the issue.
I had my fair share of maven install trouble in the past. More than once I had a broken install of the project, with then very strange errors. I suggest to go to the maven install directory (usually ~/.m2/repostory) and there remove all of the project based directories for the Groovy and the Java part. Or you just throw away the whole thing. I learned in the past that the use for a "maven install" is very limited ... Sorry that is me ranting from having spend almost 2 days on an issue that was maven install just last week. if "maven clean install" fixes the issue, then maybe it is really related to the compilation itself you should try if "maven package" or something the like works in building the app without anything installed
I should also mention that I'm using Netbeans 13 and its editor can't seem to see the file either. It gives an error saying "can't find symbol". The problem usually starts in the IDE, but running the maven surefire command from the command line will produce the same error until I do a clean install command.
Is there a chance of Netbeans using the same classes directory as is configured for your maven build and that it is interfering?
I'm not sure how to "fix" this issue. I can't tell at this point if the issue is in maven, surefire, Netbeans, or Groovy. Has anyone run into this before? I can provide more information and config/code snippets if it will help diagnose the issue.
Testing if it is Netbeans could be easy.. run it a couple of times without the ide open. Though I don't know how easy it is to reproduce. bye Jochen
