For Eclipse, I know I had the same problem, which I solved by writing a
simple plugin (it could be a goal in your root maven.xml if you only
have 1 project, I have many), which basically goes through each
subproject and runs the eclipse goal only if it doesn't have any
subproject, which in my case (and I imagine most cases) means it has no
sources. Then I use the multi-project import/export Eclipse plugin to
import the subprojects into Eclipse.
But if your stuff already works, I guess you don't really need this info
now do you? :-) Here's the goal anyway just in case...
<goal name="multiEclipse">
<maven:reactor
basedir="${maven.multiEclipse.basedir}"
banner="Gathering project list"
includes="${maven.multiEclipse.includes}"
excludes="${maven.multiEclipse.excludes}"
postProcessing="true"
collectOnly="true"
collectionVar="multiprojects"
ignoreFailures="${maven.multiEclipse.ignoreFailures}"
/>
<j:if test="${multiprojects.isEmpty()}">
<attainGoal name="eclipse"/>
</j:if>
<j:if test="${!multiprojects.isEmpty()}">
<maven:reactor
basedir="${maven.multiEclipse.basedir}"
banner="Executing ${goal}"
projectList="${multiprojects}"
goals="multiEclipse"
ignoreFailures="${maven.multiEclipse.ignoreFailures}"
/>
</j:if>
</goal>

Subject: RE: multiproject recursive nesting problem
I'm using this flat structure to keep the same hierarchy as we have in
our Eclipse development environment, so I'd prefer to keep it if
possible.
I think I have found the solution though after your comments prompted
(yet another) re-read of the multiproject documentation.
My project.properties in the buildRoot dir also contains an entry for
the docs directory:
maven.docs.dest=F:/path/to/docs
The multiproject documentation says:
"At the completion of the multiproject:site goal, each project's
generated site is copied into the appropriate directory. e.g. if
WebProject1 and JarProject2 are the names of projects processed via
multiproject:site, the project that is executing multiproject:site will
have the generated sites from WebProject1/target/docs and
JarProject2/target/docs copied into target/docs/multiproject/WebProject1
and target/docs/multiproject/JarProject2 respectively. "
As the project.properties for my projectA and projectB did not
explicitly define their own maven.docs.dest I think they were using the
buildRoot's maven.docs.dest path, and because of this I was getting them
copied within each other.
Explicitly setting a unique maven.docs.dest in the project.properties of
each sub-project appears to have fixed this!
Thanks for helping with my question.
Cheers,
Rob.
