Hi!
We have a Maven project that we want to build parts of using Hudson. Our
setup is similar to this:
A -- B
+- D
+- E
+- F
Where A, B, C, D, E and F are maven modules. A is parent to all modules, D
is parent to E and F.
We are using profiles that are defined from module A and down in order to
minimize configuration.
We have a profile defined in module A with the name Foo. Foo is also defined
in module D and finally in module E with narrower and narrower properties.
This works ok for us.
I have a Hudson CI server with a job defined for each module B, E and F.
Each job listens for changes at the level A.
I would want my Hudson to listen to module F and if a change is found,
checkout from module A and run a Maven build on module F. The reason is that
I need all profile settings, from A and downwards, during the execution of
module F. Each execution takes a couple of minutes and there are many jobs.
I have looked at the configuration options in Hudson and I can't see that
this is possible.
Do you have any suggestions for a solution?
/Thomas
