       Body:
The multiproject plugin uses the reactor internally, which can provide access to all 
the subprojects, but only after the reactor has completed.

Perhaps we could first use the reactor with a no-op goal to obtain a reference to all 
the subprojects, then use that information during a second reactor execution for the 
multiproject goal's normal use, and set the jar overrides, as you suggest.

    Summary: multiproject:artifact builds do not use local project artifacts for 
dependencies
       Type: Bug

     Status: Reopened
   Priority: Major

Description:
Suppose I have a "multiproject" with 3 subprojects, called "api", "ri" and "tck", each 
with a current version of "1.0-b1-SNAPSHOT".

The dependencies are setup as follows:
  ri-1.0-b1-SNAPSHOT  -> api-1.0-b1-SNAPSHOT
  tck-1.0-b1-SNAPSHOT -> api-1.0-b1-SNAPSHOT

When I use multiproject plugin to build, the dependencies are not picked up as 
expected.

> maven multiproject:artifact

Starting the reactor...
Our processing order:
api
ri
tck

+----------------------------------------
| Executing multiproject:artifact-callback api
| Memory: 4M/6M
+----------------------------------------
...
    [echo] Running jar:jar for api
...

+----------------------------------------
| Executing multiproject:artifact-callback Oracle EL RI
| Memory: 7M/9M
+----------------------------------------

BUILD FAILED
File...... [maven.repo.local]/plugins/maven-multiproject-plugin-1.0/
Element... maven:reactor
Line...... 191
Column.... 9
The build cannot continue because of the following unsatisfied dependency:

api-1.0-b1-SNAPSHOT.jar

This is happening because the api artifact is not present in the local maven 
repository and cannot therefore be resolved by the ri project.

It would be much more convenient if this multiproject:artifact goal worked without 
needing to install artifacts into the local repository.

The reactor has already figured out the build order based on the dependency chain, so 
it is already quite clear which project dependencies are satisfied by other projects 
being built during the same multiproject:artifact execution.

These specific dependencies could be overridden by multiproject during a subproject 
build, and instead point to the local target area of the corresponding peer project.

So, for example, the ri subproject ${pom} processed by multiproject:artifact-callback 
could be modified to point to "${basedir}/../api/target/api-1.0-SNAPSHOT.jar" for the 
api dependency, instead of pointing at the local maven repository.

This would have 3 distinct advantages.

1. multiproject:artifact builds would succeed when the local maven repository does not 
contain the peer subproject dependencies.

2. multiproject:artifact builds would succeed when the local maven repository contains 
stale peer subproject dependencies previously downloaded from the remote maven 
repository.

3. multiproject:artifact builds would succeed even for peer subproject SNAPSHOT 
dependencies which would otherwise be overwritten in the local maven repository when 
the stale api SNAPSHOT jar is re-downloaded from the remote maven repository, during 
the build of the ri subproject.

Note.  This strategy would also allow multiproject:install to work for 1.0-b1-SNAPSHOT 
version, without forcing an offline build.  Requiring the build to be offline in this 
case is inconvenient because other dependencies cannot be downloaded on demand to the 
local maven repository.
