Description

Cannot read lifecycle mapping metadata for artifact org.codehaus.mojo:native2ascii-maven-plugin:maven-plugin:2.0.1:runtime Cause: UTF-8 BOM plus xml decl of ISO-8859-1 is incompatible (position: START_DOCUMENT seen <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"... @1:42)

When opening the project, this error blocks VSCode from successfully load the project setting, which make the project unable to run and debug

the plugin used in root pom.xml:

           <plugin>
                <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
                <artifactId>native2ascii-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>2.0.1</version>
                <executions>
                    <execution>
                        <id>utf8-to-latin1</id>

                        </goals>
                        <phase>process-resources</phase>
                        <configuration>

                            <targetDir>${project.build.outputDirectory}</targetDir>
                            <encoding>${project.build.sourceEncoding}</encoding>

Research direction

Start with the root pom.xml and its native2ascii-maven-plugin configuration, then reproduce the error by opening the Java project in VS Code. Done means the lifecycle mapping metadata loads without the UTF-8 BOM and ISO-8859-1 XML error, and the project can run and debug successfully.
