依赖管理不适用于多模块项目

我有一个包含多个模块的Maven项目，我正在尝试进行设置，以便将模块依赖关系自动构建到将依赖的模块构建到请求的生命周期阶段所需的正确生命周期阶段。

在该示例中，该模块plugin构建了一个Maven插件，该插件用于生成源代码，并被模块使用main。如果我只是尝试使用mvn -am -pl main compile，plugin则会编译模块，但process-classes不会执行生命周期阶段（这对于使用插件是必需的）。main然后，编译模块将失败，并出现以下错误：

[ERROR] Failed to parse plugin descriptor for example:plugin:1.0.0-SNAPSHOT (/Users/ims/Dropbox/IMS/Projects/PARITy_R4/codegen-test-simple/plugin/target/classes): No plugin descriptor found at META-INF/maven/plugin.xml -> [Help 1]

Maven或它的插件是否能够解决多模块项目中模块的依赖关系，并将其构建为其他模块必需的阶段？如果是这样，我需要如何设置项目才能使其正常工作？

这些是我的项目的POM：
