Description

cannot find symbol
package xxx does not exist
...

What the key point is, if I reopen the vscode or rebuild all projects, the error is changed!
Some errors in A.java this time, it will disappear if I rebuild, meanwhile B.java which previously is all fine but become reported some error this time.
Or if I make some change on pom.xml, the error is gone, but they will come back soon or later....

Am I missing or making wrong config of this extension?
Have you tried some big project like trino or presto in this extension?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported errors with a large multi-module Maven project such as trino or presto, using the referenced pom.xml configuration. Compare diagnostics after reopening VS Code, rebuilding all projects, and changing pom.xml. Done means identifying a reproducible cause and a clear configuration or extension fix for the shifting errors.
