Does anyone know if the following is doable? I have a project where I build two different artifacts off the same project base. One is a war file, which we use to deploy to a tomcat server. The other is a jar file, which is just an api snapshot of our code for other internal projects to share. The way I'm doing it now, is as follows.
+- project-root | +- pom.xml | +- pom_war.xml | +- pom_jar.xml | +- src ... The pom.xml is my parent, which defines all of the shared definitions (includes repositories, dependencies, profiles, etc.) The other two reference the parent and build the appropriate artifacts. What I have been doing is build the parent, build child one, and then build child two. As noted in prior emails, there is a way to do one build and generate all artifacts, however, the examples in the docs referenced below, do not handle my scenario. My questions is, is what I want possible to do? If so, how do I configure the <modules/> element in the parent? If not, is there a workaround for what I want to do, besides writing a script? A script may not be such a bad option, but it just adds something that I'll need to maintain if we want to add artifacts...
