skipPomModules/packagingSupporteds not working

[gunnarmorling]

I'd like to configure japicmp in the root POM of my multi-module Maven project. Of course, no report is needed for the root module itself. Two settings seem to be provided to help with that:

skipPomModules>true</skipPomModules>
<packagingSupporteds>
    <packagingSupported>jar</packagingSupported>
</packagingSupporteds

Unfortunately though, both don't take any affect, i.e. the plug-in is still run for the root module, resulting in an exception about the JAR file of that module missing (which is natural, as it has POM packaging). I took a quick look in the debugger and the mavenProject injected into the Mojo is null, resulting in an early return from the filter method.

Any idea why that could be the case?

mavenProject is injected by the container, so I don't know why it should be null.

Which maven version are you using? Is there an example that reproduces this behavior?

[siom79]

Cannot reproduce.

Sorry for the radio silence, kind of forgot about this one.

I'm on Maven 3.3.3 @ OS X. That's the project where I noticed this behavior: https://github.com/hibernate/hibernate-search/blob/master/pom.xml.

Could reproduce with Maven 3.3.3 @ Ubuntu 14.04. You defined the plugin within the <reporting/> block of the root pom with packaging type pom. In this case the injected value for mavenProject was not properly propagated. Fixed this on the develop branch.
