I've written a custom maven reporting plugin to output some basic information about spring-mvc classes. In my internal tests I can see that code like this :
public Set<Class<?>> findControllerClasses(File buildOutputDir) throws IOException, ClassNotFoundException {
Collection<URL> urls = ClasspathHelper.forJavaClassPath();
if (buildOutputDir != null) {
urls.add(buildOutputDir.toURI().toURL());
}
Reflections reflections = new Reflections(new ConfigurationBuilder().setUrls(urls));
Set<Class<?>> types = reflections.getTypesAnnotatedWith(Controller.class);
return types;
}
Works well at pulling in annotated classes. However, when I use the reporting plugin in another project, annotated classes are not picked up.
Can someone shed some light on how to access the compiled classes for reporting purposes? Or whether this is even possible ??
EDIT : partially solved using the answer to: Add maven-build-classpath to plugin execution classpath
However, this only loads classes if they have no dependencies outside the runtimeClasspathElements var for maven. Is there any way to merge these classes in to the classrealm too ?
Maybe use
/**
* The classpath elements of the project.
*
* @parameter expression="${project.runtimeClasspathElements}"
* @required
* @readonly
*/
private List<String> classpathElements;
with
private ClassLoader getProjectClassLoader()
throws DependencyResolutionRequiredException, MalformedURLException
{
List<String> classPath = new ArrayList<String>();
classPath.addAll( classpathElements );
classPath.add( project.getBuild().getOutputDirectory() );
URL[] urls = new URL[classPath.size()];
int i = 0;
for ( String entry : classPath )
{
getLog().debug( "use classPath entry " + entry );
urls[i] = new File( entry ).toURI().toURL();
i++; // Important
}
return new URLClassLoader( urls );
}
Ok. Expanding on the answer in the above comment, the full solution is to use a Configurer that takes into account both the runtime classpath AND the urls from the poms dependencies. Code shown below
/**
*
* @plexus.component
* role="org.codehaus.plexus.component.configurator.ComponentConfigurator"
* role-hint="include-project-dependencies"
* @plexus.requirement role=
* "org.codehaus.plexus.component.configurator.converters.lookup.ConverterLookup"
* role-hint="default"
*
*/

addProjectDependenciesToClassRealm(expressionEvaluator, containerRealm);
converterLookup.registerConverter(new ClassRealmConverter(containerRealm));
ObjectWithFieldsConverter converter = new ObjectWithFieldsConverter();
converter.processConfiguration(converterLookup, component, containerRealm.getClassLoader(), configuration, expressionEvaluator, listener);
}

Collection<URL> urls = buildURLs(runtimeClasspathElements);
urls.addAll(buildAritfactDependencies(expressionEvaluator));

containerRealm.addConstituent(url);

}

for (String element : runtimeClasspathElements) {
