intellij flags properties set by maven-resources-plugin as "cannot resolve symbol"

In my project's POM, I use maven-resources-plugin to set some properties from a file. However, Intellij flags these property references in the POM with the error "cannot resolve symbol", presumably because it cannot see them being defined anywhere. Is there a way to suppress this error?

Solution

  • Yes, you can open Settings (spanner icon), go to Project Settings -> Inspections and then disable the inspection Maven -> Maven Model Inspection.

    Alternatively, you might like to try defining "blank" values for the properties, and see if the plugin successfully overwrites them.

    <properties>
     <myproperty></myproperty>
</properties>

    Good luck!
