So why are you trying to include a module twice? Having them declared once will allow you to do this. If they are not logically part of the same system (i.e. when you run mvn release) they shouldn't be modules. So you are better off having two (or more) separate projects and you have to run mvn in each project when you need to. You can reduce/remove the need to run "mvn" until you are ready to commit into your version control system and run the unit tests by * Using continuous integration (e.g. jenkins) * Configuring your IDE so that you work there most of the time. e.g Eclipse can depend upon the other projects in your workspace (even though they are separate maven projects) so that you get all the benefits of fast compilation done by your IDE. You only need to break out to a shell to double check that everything works in maven too. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
