maven-cdk-plugin: two phase source compilation needed for consuming projects to determine types during CDK build ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: RF-12317 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/RF-12317 Project: RichFaces Issue Type: Bug Security Level: Public(Everyone can see) Components: cdk, component Affects Versions: 4.2.0.Final Reporter: Lukáš Fryč Assignee: Lukáš Fryč Fix For: 4.3.0.Milestone1 With current setup of UI builds, CDK features * {{component-base-class}} * {{<cdk:object />}} or {{<c:forEach />}} can't properly determine the type of component (if not explicitly defined), since the type is not known in the time of the CDK generation step. See following log: {code} ~/cdk/test-component$ mvn clean install [INFO] Scanning for projects... [INFO] [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Building RichFaces CDK: Test Component 4.3.0-SNAPSHOT [INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ... [INFO] --- maven-cdk-plugin:4.3.0-SNAPSHOT:generate (cdk-generate-sources) @ cdk-test-component --- [WARNING] Could not determine if the renderer-base-class extends org.richfaces.renderkit.RendererBase: org.richfaces.renderkit.TestComponentRendererBase [INFO] Cannot determine the type of org.richfaces.cdk.templatecompiler.el.types.ReferencedType: org.richfaces.renderkit.TestComponentRendererBase, it will be treated as generic Object.

[INFO] [INFO] --- maven-compiler-plugin:2.3.2:compile (default-compile) @ cdk-test-component --- [INFO] Compiling 5 source files to /home/lfryc/workspaces/richfaces/cdk/test-component/target/classes ... {code} Give attention especially to following part: {code} [WARNING] Could not determine if the renderer-base-class extends org.richfaces.renderkit.RendererBase: org.richfaces.renderkit.TestComponentRendererBase [INFO] Cannot determine the type of org.richfaces.cdk.templatecompiler.el.types.ReferencedType: org.richfaces.renderkit.TestComponentRendererBase, it will be treated as generic Object. {code} It says {{TestComponentRendererBase}} type cannot be determined, which basically means {{Class.forName(...)}} fails even though the project's {{target/classes}} directory is on classpath. Then note the compilation of sources ({{maven-compiler-plugin}}) is done after the CDK generation, which is the root cause of this problem.
