Regarding the JAR inheritance ...
As far as I remember there was a posting asking if it possible to add
a set of JAR in the master project.xml. A different angle might be
defining the version numbers and using POM interpolation
Example
===========================================
I have a lot of subprojects depending on few JARs which I would like
to build with reactor - and the version number changes monthly.
Changing the version number in 40 project.xml is some fun
Possible Solution 1
============================================
Declaring the JARs in the master project.xml including the version
number and inheriting them to ALL subprojects. IMHO this will pollute
the dependencies since ALL projects inherit them
Possible Solution 2
============================================
Defining the version number in the master pom or properties - there
was a posting ("Dependency version from property") to do this using
maven.jar.override = true
maven.jar.<dependency-id> = /path/to/your/jar
But I would need something for the version id suitable for a simple
and a reactor build (= property inheritance)
Thanks in advance
