Yes - I thought it might be this. You can't do that and expect continuum to understand it. In fact, continuum checked out your child projects into their own folders that have no relation to the parent. There's literally no way to know what to set that property to.

If you have things in the parent that are necessary to the children, then you need to make sure they are available to the children either through metadata, or by being included in an artifact (jar) that the children have access to.

You haven't "configured things incorrectly" - your project design is problematic, because it makes the assumption that your folder structure is constant. With maven, you should not make that assumption. With continuum, you cannot make that assumption.

Thanks Emmanuel,

I have a property with a path that looks like ${basedir}/../../../ core-parent/trunk/

If I use the variable ${basedir} by running maven from the command line the location looks like: C:\CIProjects\ProjectsMain\

But when I run the build in Continuum the Maven variable ${basedir} is indicated as C:\Continuum\apps\continuum\webapp\WEB-INF\working- directory\21

Obviously I've configured something incorrectly...

Subject: Re: getting relative paths maven + continuum

Continuum doesn't build projects directly. It start maven in the right directory then maven do the build and Continuum look at the output and the result.

Can you add more details about your problem?

Hi,

I am a new maven and continuum user.  I'm having problems setting a
relative path because when continuum runs maven it interprets
variables such as ${base.dir} differently than when I run maven from
the project directory.  I assume this is because continuum starts
maven in a web app working directory. Is there a way to get continuum
to start maven in the project directory?

Thanks for any help you can offer.

Brad
