Benjamin Bentmann commented on MCLEAN-20:
-----------------------------------------

bq. Aggregator poms do not install anything into "target" and should not take 
part in the "clean" workflow.
This statement does not hold for all use-cases. A project with packaging POM 
may fairly well produce output in its "target" directory. This can naturally 
happen if one has site sources in the parent project (just see Surefire). 
Likewise, a user might want to configure an additional plugin to get run in the 
lifecycle of the parent project that produces output in "target". 

Since version 2.2, the Clean Plugin has a skip option (see MCLEAN-24) which 
should allow you to suppress the cleaning in pom-complete.xml.

>             Project: Maven 2.x Clean Plugin

> If you have projects with the following layout:
> cds_adapter/pom.xml
> cds_adapter/pom-complete.xml - an aggregator
> deriv_adapter/pom.xml
> Then when you do:
> mvn -f pom-complete.xml clean install
> what you want is for deriv_adapter's jar to be built and installed followed 
> by cds_adapter's jar.
> This happens. However, unfortunately the last thing to run is the "clean 
> install" task on the pom-complete.xml project. This deletes the 
> cds_adapter/target directory. The desired behaviour would be for the 
> aggregator pom not to result in the deletion of the /target directory.
> Aggregator poms do not install anything into "target" and should not take

> The workaround is to issue the commands separately:
> mvn -f pom-complete.xml clean
> mvn -f pom-complete.xml install
