Maven 3: How to exclude generated sources from Xlint check?

Question

We only allow java source code without Xlint errors. However, when sources are generated by third-party tools, this is not practical. Examples of generated sources in our use case are JFlex, JavaCC, JAXB, and annotation processors.

So the question is: how to exclude generated sources from Xlint check? (see current configuration below)

<plugin>
    <artifactId>maven-compiler-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>3.5.1</version>
    <configuration combine.self="override">
        <source>${java.version}</source>
        <target>${java.version}</target>
        <showDeprecation>true</showDeprecation>
        <showWarnings>true</showWarnings>
        <!-- Since JDK1.3 javac ignores any optimization flags -->
        <optimize>true</optimize>
        <debug>false</debug>
    </configuration>
    <executions>
      <execution>
        <id>default-compile</id>
        <phase>compile</phase>
        <goals>
          <goal>compile</goal>
        </goals>
        <configuration>
          <!-- everything in target/generated-sources/** should be excluded from this check -->
          <compilerArgs>
            <arg>-Xlint:all,-rawtypes</arg>
          </compilerArgs>                     
        </configuration>
      </execution>
    </executions>
</plugin>

Answer 1

There is no maven-compiler-plugindirect configuration. The parameters passed are intended for all execution, so the transfer -Xlint:allwill be applied to all sources for compilation.
