Re: [m2e-users] m2e doesn't appear to be rerunning xjc on save of xsd

[Fred Bricon <fbricon@xxxxxxxxx>]

In m2e 1.3, the behavior for <execute/> mapping of maven plugins has been changed to runOnIncremental=false by default[1], to prevent random build loops.

You need to change your lifecycle mapping configuration to use :

<execute><runOnIncremental>false</runOnIncremental></execute>

See [2] for more infos on that setting.

I've been working occasionally on a Maven app that uses CXF's XJC plugin to generate Java code from an XSD.  I'm pretty sure I've seen Eclipse regenerate the Java code when I saved the XSD, which then recompiles those classes.  This is a very good thing to happen automatically.

Recently I've noticed that this doesn't appear to be happening.  I just tested this now.  I made a relevant change to the xsd and saved it.  Eclipse went into "Building workspace", but it didn't appear to regenerate the code.  I checked the timestamp on the generated file, and it wasn't updated.  In this test case, I had also made a change in a Java class that references one of the generated types, and I was trying to reference a property that should have been there if the code was properly generated from the xsd.  If everything worked correctly, the red squigglies should have disappeared after I changed the xsd.

I believe this section of my pom is relevant:

                                </plugin>
                        </plugins>
                </pluginManagement>

In Project Properties, I inspected the Lifecycle Mapping.  In the "generate-sources" phase, it had cxf-xjc-plugin:xsdtojava, with "execute" mapping, and source "pom".

I'm on STS 2.9.2 with the latest m2e.

What am I missing?
