Just to clarify - say Subproject B depends on Subproject A.
I would set the classpath of a subproject B to point to the /target/classes directory of subproject A.


Then run 'multiproject:goals' with the goal of 'java:compile'. This should compile all classes without creating jars right? What I'd like to do is have the project in a state where a change to a single class can be deployed and tested by just compiling that class then moving it to the application server directory.

Hmm... you sure it involves copying files around. I was planning on setting the output classes directories (subproject/target/classes) in the classpath of higher-level subprojects.

Then, I'd run multiproject:goal with -Dgoal=java:compile? Any reason this wouldn't work?

Would this involve overwriting the default java:compile goals? I guess what I'm asking is how one can add directories to the default compile classpath.

Jarring doesn't take very much time at all and makes everything a lot cleaner.

If Jarring takes time, is it really that the test step in between
java:compile and jar:jar is slow?

This is a separate problem - there are ways to disable tests for
development, but its also  highly recommended you run them if they are
effective. If they are slow, perhaps you have some integration or
performance tests in there and should split them into special
integration test projects that can be run before releases instead of
every build.
