After a maven refresh annotation processors cannot find resources about m2e-apt HOT 3 OPEN

I also tested with and without the maven-processor-plugin version 3.3.3

EDIT ... sorry it does work for the maven-processor-plugin if you delegate to in the project configuration as per the README but the error messages for the annotations then happen on the POM instead of the Java file (Eclipse UI).

I can't decide which behavior is better. False errors on Java files or positive hard to read errors on the POM file.

For other that may have this problem:

The best work around I have found is to turn on default m2e-apt and then have Maven copy the resources:

      <plugin>
        <artifactId>maven-resources-plugin</artifactId>
        <executions>
          <execution>
            <id>copy-resources</id>
            <phase>validate</phase>
            <goals>
              <goal>copy-resources</goal>
            </goals>
            <configuration>
              <outputDirectory>${basedir}/target/generated-sources/annotations</outputDirectory>
              <resources>
                <resource>
                  <directory>${basedir}/src/main/resources</directory>
                  <includes>
                    <include>META-INF/**/*.sql</include>
                  </includes>
                </resource>
              </resources>
            </configuration>
          </execution>
        </executions>
      </plugin>

I'm not entirely sure how the above works. I know its copying the resources and I know the m2e plugin will do that but I'm not sure if it invalidates some things for incremental build or the above always causes a full build.
