I have a related question. I have been trying to figure out if Maven can handle a project that consists of multiple CVS projects with dependencies between each.
The example is similar to below: CVS project MyProject1 depends on Foo.jar in CVS CommonProject CVS project MyProject2 depends on Bar.jar in CVS CommonProject When I build either MyProject1 or MyProject2, I want to make sure CommonProject is built too, because I may be modifying code in it as well. To me, this seems like a natural way to manage the code in CVS, instead of one huge CVS project that contains everything. However I am unclear if Maven (or anything else) can manage a structure like this. Thanks for any info... --joe On Mon, 2004-05-17 at 23:58, Amato Massimiliano (TLAB) wrote: > Hi Dan > > We decided not to solve your question since we believed that in the open source > world that approach (not to hide dependencies) is widely accepted. > > Anyway if you really want to do it one solution would be to update the jar plugin so > it accepts a jar.bunlde property that basically includes the hidden dependencies in > the the common.jar file, if you are interested i can send you the piece of code that > do it all. > > I am also thinking that this would be a great addition to the plugin that would come > almost for free.
