If the parent is deployed internally then you don't need to worry about the structure.
Alternatively, if you are using a Build Management s Server like AHP or Hudson, tey can alter the layout on-the-fly at checkout/update time. ________________________________ Curt Yanko | Continuous Integration Services | UnitedHealth Group IT Making IT Happen, one build at a time -----Original Message----- From: thisguy [mailto:bobsmith30...@yahoo.com] Sent: Tuesday, October 19, 2010 10:40 AM To: users@maven.apache.org Subject: project structure with per-project trunks and svn Hello experts, I'm trying to reconcile the standard maven project structure with the standard svn project structure (with per-project versioning). I'd like to have a subversion structure like this: pom.xml --proj A ----trunk ------pom.xml ------src --proj B ----trunk ------pom.xml ------src etc. How can I get maven to build everything properly? Should I use svn externals to magically remove the trunk directories so that this layout would conform to standard maven layout? If I did that, how would I handle the situation of wanting to build a particular branch..wouldn't I have to update the externals properties back and forth (cumbersome)? Or should I change all project poms to use parent relative paths of "../../pom.xml" to get to the parent pom? But this technique wouldn't work if I wanted to build a particular branch because it would be an extra level deep (i.e. proj->branches->1.0.0->pom.xml). What is best practice here?
