title: How do I disable the maven-compiler-plugin?
body: <p>I have a maven project that uses the aspectj-compiler-plugin.  I use intertype declarations so there are references to Aspect code in my Java code.  Because of this, the maven-compiler-plugin fails to compile since it does not compile the aspect code.</p>
  
  <p>My question is: how do I disable the maven-compiler-plugin from running because it is not doing anything useful?</p>
  
  <p>There are several ways that I can get this project compiling, but they are sub-optimal:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Add exclusion filters to the maven-compiler-plugin. The plugin will still run, but it will not try to compile anything.  Problem is that this breaks the ajdt project configurator in Eclipse</li>
  <li>Move all java code to the aspectj folders.  This doesn't feel right either.</li>
  </ol>
