Experiment with placing poms outside of src
-------------------------------------------
Key: LUCENE-3948
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-3948
Project: Lucene - Java
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: general/build
Reporter: Chris Male
Priority: Minor
Recent work in LUCENE-3944 has changed how our generated pom.xml files are
handled during release preparation, placing them in build/ instead. However
get-maven-poms still places the poms inside src/ so you can use them to drive a
build. What I think would be ideal is if we could unify the release handling
of the poms and the normal building handling, so that the poms can sit outside
of src and serve both purposes.
Some time ago I investigated how the ANT project handles its own Maven
integration and it has its poms sitting in their own directory. They then
reference the actual src locations inside the poms. This works for ANT but
with a warning since some of their tests don't work due to how the Maven
surefire plugin works, so they skip their tests.
I have done some quick testing of my own and this process does seem to work for
our poms and tests. I now want to take this to a full scale POC and see if it
works fully.
