Finalizing database at E:\00.running\codeql\databases\dzwn.
CodeQL detected code written in Java but could not process any of it. This can occur if the specified build commands failed to compile or process any code.
- Confirm that there is some source code for the specified language in the project.
- For codebases written in Go, JavaScript, TypeScript, and Python, do not specify
an explicit --command.
- For other languages, the --command must specify a "clean" build which compiles
all the source code files without reusing existing build artefacts.
```

I tried with mvn clean install or clean package, got same error, the project can build successfully without codeql.
`codeql database create E:\00.running\codeql\databases\dzwn --language="java" --command="mvn clean package -DskipTests -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8 --file pom.xml"`

```
codeql version
CodeQL command-line toolchain release 2.14.0.
Copyright (C) 2019-2023 GitHub, Inc.
Unpacked in: E:\00.running\codeql\codeql-win64_v2.14.0\codeql
Analysis results depend critically on separately distributed query and
extractor modules. To list modules that are visible to the toolchain,
use 'codeql resolve qlpacks' and 'codeql resolve languages'.

Research direction

Start with the reported CodeQL 2.14.0 database creation command and the repository's pom.xml; compare the successful Maven build output with the CodeQL extraction logs. Confirm why Java compilation is not being processed during database creation, and consider the issue resolved when the command produces a database containing the project's Java code.
