[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-359?page=comments#action_39737 ] Rod Coffin commented on MNG-359: --------------------------------
If the <modules> allowed "../" in order refer to modules at the same level as the parent project then working with a maven project within Eclipse would be much simpler. I have used a similar technique in M1 and is has served me well in several applications. I agree that hierarchical support for projects within Eclipse would be preferable but in the meantime this technique would be quite helpful. As an example, I would like to define modules as follows: <modules> <module>../m2-test-app</module> <module>../m2-test-web</module> <module>../m2-test-plugin</module> </modules> What is the reasoning behind disallowing "../"? I'm sure that you had good reasons for adding this limitation. > support project inheritence with flat project layout > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-359 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-359 > Project: Maven 2 > Type: Wish > Components: maven-core > Versions: 2.0-alpha-1 > Reporter: Ryan Sonnek > Priority: Critical > Fix For: 2.0-beta-1 > > > the project inheritence does not currently support projects that are laid out > with a "flat" directory structure. > ex: > --/my-project-root/ > ----pom.xml (base pom) > --/my-subproject-one/ > ----pom.xml (child pom) > original thread on mailing list: > http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=turbine-maven-user&m=111442037703037&w=2 -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
