Description

The code in the class AbstractCompilerMojo has a method isDependencyChanged which uses the attribute fileExtensions which is being changed within the isDependencyChanged method. This attribute is also being used by the method hasNewFile which is a kind of confusing (a control via a global variable).
Furthermore a change in isDependencyChanged where replacing ".class" with "class" results in a fail which is described here.

It should be investigated how this code can be made more clear and maybe easier to understand.
