Hi Nicholas, Two things: - you should have a look at the multiproject plugin for global reports - there is a known memory leak in Maven that is getting fixed for the 1.0 release (not fixed yet)
The way we do it on our project is not to use the multiproject and instead use the reactor and spawn a new JVM for each project build. It is not nice and it is slow but it works for now. Thanks -Vincent PS: I'm copying the Maven lists as there's a ton of knowledgeable people over there than can also help you. In addition others may be interested in our discussion. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 02 October 2003 06:26 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Maven - Reactor in large project > > > > > > Vincent, > > I was wondering if you could assist in a problem I am having with Maven. > > We have numerous projects, and the aim is to produce documentation per > project with a header web page from which we > can navigate to the subprojects. > > I have defined a project.xml in every project, and in the main project > have > a project.xml and maven.xml, the latter uses the maven reactor to > iterate through the sub project project.xml's. > > However, it seems to chew up huge amounts of memory, currrently set at > 512MB for the VM, and then it just hangs. > > the reactor seems to do some work then gets invoked again and again, is > this normal?
