I've taken an approach which separates parents and aggregates. I've put all my parents into one eclipse project, each with a folder naming the parent, and in that folder, a pom.xml; this is of course a "flat" structure. These I then "mvn install" into my local repo, and/or deploy. I'm following the convention of labeling these with version like 1, 2, 3 ... see for instance the common apache pom (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/apache/7/apache-7.pom). Using m2eclipse you can select the folder containing a pom, right click, and pick the run -> mvn install to do this very easily (or from the main Eclipse run menu, once you do it once this right-click way, because it gets set up as an Eclipse run configuration).
The aggregate poms just do aggregation, and are not parents of anything. With this approach, I think that there is no need to have relativePath set. -Marshall On 4/27/2010 5:17 AM, subir.sasiku...@wipro.com wrote: > You need to add a <relativePath> for parent elements.
