If this was me I would create a new pom, which would be the parent for the 3 libraries, I would then also build at that level.
e.g. ~/mavenprojects/pom.xml (packaging pom) ~/mavenprojects/myLib1/pom.xml (packaging jar) ~/mavenprojects/myLib2/pom.xml (packaging jar) ~/mavenprojects/myLib3/pom.xml (packaging jar) Basically that is how every project I've worked on works. You have to define the parent and relative Path correctly in the lib projects, and add modules into the parent pom. Basically one pom per thing, sometimes over kill but often easier then scaling projects up or moving between projects. We have ~65 pom on my main project, ~15 are pom's to logically group functionaility, some are simply a single wsdl or xsd, others are the jpa layer. Others might have different views but that is how I'd do it. On 15 October 2012 12:51, Lucio Crusca <lu...@sulweb.org> wrote: > Hello *, > > I'm new to maven.
