Error in maven pom xml file: Building Android project
android, java, maven, xml
Solution
To silence the error in pom.xml the following could be added in there:
<pluginManagement>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.eclipse.m2e</groupId>
<artifactId>lifecycle-mapping</artifactId>
<version>1.0.0</version>
<configuration>
<lifecycleMappingMetadata>
<pluginExecutions>
<pluginExecution>
<pluginExecutionFilter>
<groupId>com.jayway.maven.plugins.android.generation2</groupId>
<artifactId>android-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<versionRange>[1.0.0,)</versionRange>
<goals>
<goal>consume-aar</goal>
</goals>
</pluginExecutionFilter>
<action>
<ignore />
</pluginExecution>
</action>
</pluginExecutions>
</lifecycleMappingMetadata>
</configuration>
</plugin>
. . .
Problem
I am getting the error in plugin tag in pom xml file. The error is on plugin tag, before groupId. Error:- ``` Plugin execution not covered by lifecycle configuration:com.jayway.maven.plugins.android.generation2:android-maven-plugin:3.8.2:consume-aar (execution: default-consume-aar, phase: compile) ``` Any one knows how to resolve this problem. Below mentioned is the pom.xml file contents pom.xml file ``` <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd"> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>com.simpligility.android</groupId> <artifactId>helloflashlight</artifactId> <version>1.0.0</version> <packaging>apk</packaging> <name>HelloFlashlight</name> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>com.google.android</groupId> <artifactId>android</artifactId> <version>4.1.1.4</version> <scope>provided</scope> </dependency> </dependencies> <build> <sourceDirectory>src</sourceDirectory> <finalName>${project.artifactId}</finalName> <pluginManagement> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>com.jayway.maven.plugins.android.generation2</groupId> <artifactId>android-maven-plugin</artifactId> <version>3.8.2</version> <extensions>true</extensions> </plugin> </plugins> </pluginManagement> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>com.jayway.maven.plugins.android.generation2</groupId> <artifactId>android-maven-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <sdk> <!-- platform as api level (api level 16 = platform 4.1)--> <platform>16</platform> </sdk> </configuration> </plugin> </plugins> </build> </project> ```
