Assign To: Brett Porter Resolution: Duplicate > Optionally split up/partition pom.xml with XInclude > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-1890 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1890 > Project: Maven 2 > Type: Improvement > Components: POM > Versions: 2.0.1 > Reporter: Geoffrey > Assignee: Brett Porter > > > A pom.xml can get really big, considering it holds more information then > maven.xml and project.xml together. > In Java is a bad idea to have a class with more then 500 lines. > In Spring they use the <import tag to split up applicationContext files. > But there already is a standard to partition xml files: XInclude. > From a user perspective a partitioned pom.xml would be a lot more maintable > since we could decide to make a > pom-dependencies.xml etc if we we want. > Problems: > - Sending the pom to the repository should merge it. > - Continuum needs a non-partioned pom > - pom processing mevenide's etc. -- 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]
