What happens when we pass parameter -xyz; mvn --help to the rescue! -pl or --projects means we ask maven to select a particular project or artifact to build and/or run a plugin on.
We can either give it a valid filesystem path like; mvn -pl client jetty:run (here client is the folder which is actually the cloud-client-ui artifact) Or, we specify the artifactId, so we use <groupId>:<artifactId> as to use default groupId which is org.apache.cloudstack, so both of the following are valid as well: mvn -pl :cloud-client-ui jetty:run (here since we're already inside cloudstack's src, the groupId is already defined in all pom.xmls) mvn -pl org.apache.cloudstack:cloud-client-ui jetty:run Regards. ________________________________________ From: Charles Moulliard [ch0...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, November 09, 2012 2:44 PM To: cloudstack-dev Subject: Meaning of parameter -pl developer, ...
