[MCOMPILER-581] Create second default execution "default-generate-sources" for APT #857
Description
Benjamin Marwell opened MCOMPILER-581 and commented
Starting with version 4.0.0 of this plugin for use with Maven 4+, the following changes should be incorporated to align the compilation process with the process designed by the OpenJDK javac team:
- Modify default-compile to use proc:none by default
- Create a new goal default-generate-sources and use proc:only
This will align the compilation process with the default javac use.
Rationale
Before JDK 21+, no "proc:full" was available and implicitly used when no proc:* was set.
However, starting with JDK 21, proc:full was introduced and not specifying proc:* will now trigger a warning.
Alternatives
Keep one phase but specify proc:full whenever APTs are in the CP or used as a compiler-plugin dependency/path or when APT classes are explicitly given.
Drawbacks of this approach
TODO: document drawbacks of this approach and of the alternatives.
No further details from MCOMPILER-581

How about something along these lines:
proc:onlyAbstractCompilerMojolike "two phase APT" (boolean) defaults to false, keep today functionality, works as nowproc:none(maybe fail if proc explicitly configured?), and the two new mojos activate and run using{}proc:only{}.Am unsure why we need Maven4 for change like this.
