Re: Functionality allowed in a dependency of type=POM

[Bernd Eckenfels]

Both modules (of type POM) can contain build steps, however when you reference 
a POM it will not execute those steps (the steps are executed before - you 
would deploy the referenced project first).

If you want to distribute or repackage the pulled in dependencies you would use 
the assembly or resource plugin in the including Pom.

Subject: Functionality allowed in a dependency of type=POM

If I have a POM that contains a dependency of type=POM, e.g.

 
com.mycompany
mysql-starter
1.0
pom
 

I see that the included POM can contain other dependencies, thus
providing a way to package together a set of related dependencies.

Can the reference POM also contain build steps?
For example: Use the resource plugin to copy certain files that are
needed when using the specific JAR mentioned in its dependencies.
