Thanks for the reply, again :)
I don't think "-amd" covers my need though. Because there's no parent/child
relationship between the modules/sub-modules there's no dependency between
them. It feels to me like there's an option missing for the reactor here...
A simpler example for clarity:
<a>
<b>
<c />
<d />
<e />
</b>
<f />
<g />
</a>
Each node is a project, and sub-projects are nested. For dependencies, say
only that "c depends on f". There are no parent-child relationships.
If I want to build <b> with all its sub-modules (<c> <d>
<e>) and dependencies (<f>), can I do that? The only options I
see are:
1 - change to b directory, then "mvn install"
2 - from top level, "mvn install -pl a/b -amd"
3 - from top level, "mvn install -pl a/b/c,a/b/d,a/b/e -amd"
Option 1 builds the sub-modules I want, but doesn't build the dependency
<f>.
Option 2 only builds the project <b>, none of it's sub-modules because
they are not dependents.
Option 3 works, but it's no good because I need to know & provide all the
sub-modules of <b>.
Ideally there'd be an option like "-ams" (also make sub-modules) which I
could use in option 2, but I can't see any way to do it?
