Oh I see. How about having a release branch for each of your projects? Then you wouldn't have to worry about specifying a svn number for each project. A parent project could still work as they could do a multi-module build, which builds each project in turn.

It helps ensure that the products can be rebuilt from the source code, and that helps certain audit/security processes. In any case, this is what my company does, and they pay me every two weeks. I do what you suggest for internal and informal releases of test tools and report generators. -Chris -----Original Message----- From: Richard Chamberlain [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, May 22, 2008 12:00 PM To: Maven Users List Subject: RE: Certification build question Why do the team need to build your application? Can you not give them a built version for them to test? If you can do this, have an application project that depends on all the components that you use. Configure the assembly plugin to zip all the dependencies into a kit. You can then tell them to pick up this version of the application from the repository and test it. Hope I understood correctly. Regards, Rich -----Original Message----- From: Chris Helck [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 22 May 2008 16:14 To: Maven Users List Subject: Certification build question Hi, We have multiple components and applications. When I hand an application over to our certification team to build I need to tell them which (if any) dependent components they need to build. So every release I have provide specific instructions of the form: From SCM get this label, build with mvn From SCM get another label, build with mvn and so on. The certification team hates this. They'd like to build the application the same way on every release. The certification team doesn't care about low level components, and don't have any way to test them directly. Perhaps they should, but that is beside the point. So my question is how to handle this?
