Change build order for multi-module build

[Björn Beskow]

Hi

 

I’m working on enhancing the Cobertura plugin to aggregate coverage results
when generating a report in a multi-module setting. In order to be able to
aggregate coverage results from the separate sub-modules, I would need the
sub-modules to be processed before the parent module. But it seems the
parent project is always processed first. Does anyone know if there is a way
to control/change that ordering?

 

For example, with the following structure

 

parent

|- module1

|- module2

 

when running ‘mvn site’ in the parent project, the parent will be processed
first, followed by module1 and module2.

 

Any help greatly appreciated!
