Thanks very much for your help. I'll try to describe the use case. :)
In a similar scenerio, I have:
mainprojectfolder:
+folder1
+folder2
+folder3
+ src
+ net
+ test
+ File1.java
+folder4
+globalbuildfolder
Each folder has an Ant build.xml file, where globalbuildfolder is a folder
where global properties go, creates a EAR from all the folders etc.
I'm converting to Maven 1.0.2, and so I'm going to have a project.xml in
each folder1, 2 etc, which all <extend> the project.xml globalbuildfolder. I
then have a case where the java src code in folder2 relies on the java src
code in folder3. What I mean by this is that a class in folder2 imports a
class which is in folder3 (like above, a class in folder2 does: import
net.test.File1;)
As you can appreciate because I am coverting to Maven 1.0.2, and people have
been and are working on these projects, I can't restructure the
folders/filesystem etc.
Many thanks,
Michael Owen
