Hi Wayne,
I can not help it. I just joined a project to replace a guy who left the
project. So I am on an accelerated learning curve.

Re: Maven Assembly for MultiModule project
It sounds like you're jumping in to complex builds with Maven2 without
really understanding how things work at a basic level. As an example
of this, you're running mvn install:install-file etc on what seems to
be a Maven project -- so you really only need to type "mvn install".
The same thing goes for your comment about "adding dependencies in all
the pom.xml even if they have been specified in the parent." So I
think you've skipped some important steps in your learning process.
I would go back to the beginning and work your way through Better
Builds With Maven (free pdf book from devzuz.com) and Maven: The
Definitive Guide (from sonatype.com). The books are organized such
that you start out learning how Maven works internally (generally),
and then they lead through some basic examples and finally take you
through much more involved examples.
You should be able to do this in just 1 or 2 days, and I think you
really need to invest this time now rather than attempting to hack
your poms and assemblies just to make it work.

Re: Maven Assembly for MultiModule project
Hi Wayne, I am sorry Wayne. I should have been more specific on the post. To answer your first comment, and I do not wish to sound rude, but if I knew what I was doing wrong, I would not have posted in the first place. 2. I am trying to assemble a jar of module Foo and Bar . I wish that I create an executable jar with a defined main class and a classpath added to MANIFEST.MF. So basically i want the to create foo.jar and bar.jar containing all the dependencies. 3. I find that if i make the changes in Foo-A or FooB java classes, and if i execute a mvn assembly:assembly, it does not build the FOO-A or FOO-B in the .m2 repository before building Foo and Bar successfully again I have to get around that by doing the following mvn install:install-file -Dfile=/home/krishnan/project/foo-a/target/foo-a-0.1.jar -DgroupId=project -DartifactId=foo-a -Dversion=0.1 -Dpackaging=jar -DgeneratePOM=true, the solution I found by doing a search on one of the posts. and again for foo-b. I would like to avoid that and just have mvn assembly:assembly do all this before creating foo.jar and bar.jar.

Re: Maven Assembly for MultiModule project
This list really works better if you post what you've done and then tell us why its not working the way you wanted, or an error message you got, etc. Looking at what you sent, I have no idea if it is working how you expect or not. Sending your pom and assembly.xml file is probably not going to give you the results you are hoping for. So, send a reply and be more clear about what you've got vs what you want etc. Wayne On 3/6/08, krishnan.1000 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi, > > I am a Maven newbie and I hope this is not a stupid question.
