Maven: excluding java files in compilation
Solution 1:
Use the Maven Compiler Plugin.
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<excludes>
<exclude>**/api/test/omi/*.java</exclude>
</excludes>
</configuration>
</plugin>
Solution 2:
Adding an exclude as the other answers suggested worked for me, except the path shouldn't include "src/main/java":
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<excludes>
<exclude>com/filosync/store/StoreMain.java</exclude>
</excludes>
</configuration>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
Solution 3:
For anyone needing to exclude test sources <exclude>
tag will not work. You need to use <testExclude>
instead:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.3</version>
<configuration>
<testExcludes>
<testExclude>**/PrefixToExclude*</testExclude>
</testExcludes>
</configuration>
</plugin>
