how to specify different file name for pom.xml of a module?

[Yuhan Zhang]

Hi all,

I'd like to keep multiple pom files in the same project with different
dependencies, so that I could build it with "mvn -f pom_2.xml". however,
since my project have sub modules, I'd like it to build using the pom_2.xml
file in module folder, too. but the build  "mvn -f pom_2.xml" always goes
to pom.xml in the module folder.

Here's how my project is structured:

└── my-project

        ├── pom.xml

        ├── pom_2.xml

    └── my-module

        ├── pom.xml

        ├── pom_2.xml


Is there a way to specify in pom_2.xml on the name of the pom file to use
for module so that the module can also be built with pom_2.xml? or is this
impossible?


Thank you.
