Research direction

Start by tracing the annotationProcessorPaths resolution process and review the linked MCOMPILER-522 issue about using Maven Resolver. The change is complete when annotation processors from the current multi-module build resolve through WorkspaceReader without requiring installation or download, using a replacement for the legacy API.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

bug priority:major

Tamas Cservenak opened MCOMPILER-496 and commented

Hence, it cannot resolve annotation processor from current multi module build, and it requires annotation processor to be installed/downloaded.

Move off from legacy API and use something like maven-artifact-transfer instead of maven-compat that delivers Maven2 behaviour.
