provide an include mechanism to include other pom.xml
-----------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-3894
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3894
Project: Maven 2
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Inheritance and Interpolation
Environment: any
Reporter: Stefan Franke
The idea to manage project independent templates is not new. But it is not
possible to do this with maven and neither inheritance nor the dependency
mechanism is enough.
The include mechnism would include the requested pom (including ist parent
poms) as if the containing elements where part of the current pom. Thus
allowing to use every available pom mechanism. On conflict local pom settings
wins.
Very useful and needed to reduce redundancy between different projects!
