I have a project laid out like this:
+parent-project
-child-project1
+child-project2
-src
-child-project2.pom
parent-project.pom
The parent defines its own version:
<version>4.4.5-SNAPSHOT</version>
And child-project two has in it's pom:
<parent>
<groupId>com.company.it.apps</groupId>
<artifactId>parent-project</artifactId>
<version>4.4.5-SNAPSHOT</version>
</parent>
The issue I'm having is that I want the person doing the builds to only have
to change the <version> in the parent-project. I want the child-projects to
*take* their version from there so that he only has to make one change. But
if I change the child to declare it's own version as:
<version>${parent.version}</version>
this actually takes it from the version declared in the child .pom. Yet, if
I don't delcare the version in the child pom it won't know which version of
the parent to go for...
Am I trying to do the impossible? I don't want to have every child's pom
modified to go from SNAPSHOT to release because in reality the projects are
much larger.
Thanks & regards,
Ten
