翻译I'm using Google's Protocol Buffers in a project. We use Maven to compile the protobufs automatically ( based on http://vlkan.com/blog/post/2015/11/27/maven-protobuf/ )
Maven gave us tree errors which we were able to solve by installing Maven Plugins on our Eclipse installation. But there is one error we can't solve :
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-dependency-plugin:2.9:copy:copy-protoc:generate-sourcesThis error comes and goes apparently "randomly" and it doesn't break the compilation: everything works perfectly fine. Here is the maven plugin configuration responsible for this problem:
<plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.9</version> <executions> ERROR HERE - <execution> <id>copy-protoc</id> <phase>generate-sources</phase> <goals> <goal>copy</goal> </goals> <configuration> <artifactItems> <artifactItem> <groupId>com.google.protobuf</groupId> <artifactId>protoc</artifactId> <version>3.0.0-beta-3</version> <classifier>${os.detected.classifier}</classifier> <type>exe</type> <outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}</outputDirectory> </artifactItem> </artifactItems> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin>I tried deleting the .m2 folder or looking for more plugins to no avail.
How to remove that error from Eclipse? Thanks
