问题
I see a lot of questions on stackoverflow on this. But still I'm not able to know what is the issue in my way of building projects.
I've two spring boot projects: we-data and we-web. we-web is dependent on we-data. we-data compiles fine on maven. But we-web gives me above error.
we-data pom:

Everytime I do maven "clean compile package install" goals on we-web I get the maven error. All the symbols that this complains isn't found are all in we-data project. For some reason, it says all the classes of we-data cannot be found in we-web. But when I run the application as spring boot app, everything is fine. No maven error matters for this.:

I have 1.8 jdk being used by the STS. And also I have not put the we-data project on build path for we-web. I want this to pass, because I want to generate a war of this. Please help. I'm doing "clean compile package install" on we-data and then doing it on we-web. "Update maven project" is also not helping me.

I've been stuck on this problem too for a day and finally found the root cause and solution here what i've done:
if you have the following lines on your pom (for your case is the we-data's pom)
<plugin>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
you should remove those lines and change into:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId>
</plugin>
after got a clue from M. Deinum i found that he's correct about the jar compiled won't be a normal jar if you using spring-boot-maven-plugin, thanks for the clue anyway.
and also please check this question: Dependency not found in Spring Boot project
I've tried to use this:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.springframework.boot</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-boot-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<goals>
<goal>repackage</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
<classifier>exec</classifier>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
it works like a charm.

Everytime I do maven "clean compile package install" goals on we-web I get the maven error. All the symbols that this complains isn't found are all in we-data project.
1) I think you should read the introduction about Maven pom here and lifecycle in Maven.
mvn clean compile package install
is redundant for compile and package phases since the install phase includes these phases (. So, do this only :
mvn clean install
2) Your web module where you run the maven goal requires the com.we:data:0.0.1-SNAPSHOT dependency with your actual code :
<dependency>
<groupId>com.we</groupId>
<artifactId>data</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>
If you add or modify code and you don't install this module, the web module cannot see these changes.
So you should do mvn clean install in the com.we:data module before doing that in the web module.
Finally the simplest to avoid having non updated dependency is running mvn clean install from a multi-module project which aggregates these modules.
回答3:
In pom.xml, Add depedency
<dependency>
<groupId>javax.inject</groupId>
<artifactId>javax.inject</artifactId>
<version>1</version>
</dependency>
and class where you are using @Inject Import javax.inject.Inject import javax.inject.Inject;
