Hibernate ant task does not work in a multi-project Maven 2 build if other mojos use javax.xml.transform -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: HBX-706 URL: http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HBX-706 Project: Hibernate Tools Type: Bug

Components: ant Versions: 3.1beta4 Environment: Hibernate 3.1, database is Oracle (but not relevant to this) Reporter: Alfie Kirkpatrick Fix For: 3.2beta7 Attachments: hibernate-problem.zip I have a reasonably complex maven 2 build with multiple projects. More than one of the projects uses the hbm2java task and at least one of the projects uses the Codehaus xslt-maven-plugin. When running the project that uses both hbm2java and XSLT, it works fine. But running the master build throws the following error. org.apache.maven.lifecycle.LifecycleExecutionException: Error executing ant tasks at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.DefaultLifecycleExecutor.executeGoals(DefaultLifecycleExecutor.java:559) [snip] Caused by: java.lang.IllegalStateException: 3.1.0.beta4 found when setting version at org.hibernate.tool.hbm2x.TemplateHelper.putInContext(TemplateHelper.java:223) [snip] I can't really explain where this error is coming from. I looked at the source for putInContext and it is using the Plexus options class and failing because the value of "version" is already in the options. I assumed from this it was a problem with the xstl-maven-plugin from Codehaus also using some Plexus libraries, but I refactored the mojo so it was ONLY using javax.xml.transform and the problem remained. I then changed my slimmed down mojo to force use of Saxon instead of the default JAXP implementation (Xalan?). .. and it worked fine! So this is definitely a problem with the instantiation of the default XSLT functionality in JDK1.4, although how that can possibly affect the build in this way is beyond me. You might consider this a Maven bug but it's very strange that it doesn't happen for any old mojo combination. I also think it is probably much easier to fix in Hibernate tools than in Maven. I'd suggest a couple of possible fixes/improvements: - Make "version" key more specific, eg. hibernate.tools.version to avoid possible clash with other Plexus clients in the same JVM - Don't throw an exception on any existing value being set as it is now but compare the value in the options to the new value and only throw an exception if they differ I can't think of a way to track down the underlying cause of this issue. It's a very odd one. Attached is a simple three project build to reproduce the problem. Just run 'mvn clean package' on the parent project to reproduce.
