Java class file truncated

Question

I have two projects. My one project (say project2) depends on another project(project2). Both projects are maven project and project1 is listed in dependancies of project2. When I compile project2, all the class files from project1 should be copied to project2 (I imagine). But, I see that the file size of one of the class files in project1 is different than file size of class file for the same class in project2. If I decompile the files I get following results.

Decompiled FacebookUserDetail.class from project1:

package com.***.domain.user.external;

My question is: What are possible reasons for truncated class file in project2?

Answer 1

Concerning this part: When I compile project2, all the class files from project1 should be copied to project2

This is actually not the case, maven compiles the two projects into two separate jars if the projects are of jar type, or copies project1.jar into WEB-INF/lib of project2 if project 2 is of type WAR.

The difference between the two class files shows that the version of project2 does not have the Roo aspects applied to it, although it was compiled with AspectJ as well.

Try to build the project from the command line only by closing all IDEs and compare the two versions to see if the same problem remains. It could be that your IDE is compiling the class with aspectJ but without the correct Roo aspects.

Also have a look at this report on having to add the aspectj plugin on both the dependent and the depending project, and this documentation on 3.7.2.2. Limitations on Roo multi-module maven support.
