Lack of relocated classes information in IDE environment #4116
Description
I'm using maven-shade-plugin in my multi module Maven Java Project.
root
|-- module-a
|-- |-- pom.xml
|-- module-b
|-- |-- pom.xml
pom.xml
module-b depents on module-a.
module-a depents on the kafka-client lib (third-party lib), and in the pom of module-a I add this to shade kafka-client lib into the final module-a Jar so that no kafka-client dependency will be passed to module-b:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-shade-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.6.0</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>package</phase>
<goals>
<goal>shade</goal>
</goals>
<configuration>
...
<!-- relocate package name -->
<relocations>
<relocation>
<pattern>org.apache.kafka</pattern>
<shadedPattern>com.a.b.c.org.apache.kafka</shadedPattern>
</relocation>
</relocations>
...
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>module-b depents on module-a so it will import the relocated classes in kafka-client which is contained in module-a Jar.
But when I try to import the project into VSCode I got error "The import com.a.b.c cannot be resolved Java(268435846)" in module-b like:
I think maybe vscode is not including the shaded jar into project environment?
No offense, but IntelliJIDEA handled like this without error alert, project seems all good after importing:
Maybe we can take it into consideration?
Thank you very much.
