Robert Scholte commented on MINSTALL-94: ---------------------------------------- What I don't like about the {{failIf}} option, is that when an artifact should have been available the build should break, but by defining this option these build-failures are ignored. So the best way would be to define it per module, making it equivalent to the skip-parameter. AFAIK you need to run {{package}} in order to run {{install}} or {{deploy}}, because that's when the jar/war/ear is bound to the {{MavenProject}}, so the next goals know what to install or deploy. If you want to confirm that the whole multimodule can be compiled, {{mvn compile}} is enough with Maven3. For inner-multimodule dependencies the classes-directory will be used instead of the jar. Have you thought about the evil options {{maven.test.skip}} and {{skipTests}}? > Optional: limit install to packaging x and or make install plugin not fail if > no artifacts were created for some modules. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MINSTALL-94 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MINSTALL-94 > Project: Maven 2.x Install Plugin > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Henning Gross > Attachments: MINSTALL-94.patch > > > Background: I am working in a huge project with a lot of modules having a lot > of javascript-optimization and stuff happening in lifecycle-steps after > compile.
