This is a fragment from openejb3/server's pom.xml. Could someone
please explain how this works?
I haven't investigate thoroughly, but I believe that this is an
easy way to make sure that if any container module references any
server module as a dependency you will get a circular dependency
and maven will refuse to build.
Anita,
Interesting. If I remove that dependency from the pom in my local
repo, I can build modules/geronimo-openejb with mvn -o. With the
dependency, I get the following error:
[INFO]
