Hi Alexander,
2006/9/27, Morgovsky, Alexander (US - Glen Mills) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Hi, I have a few questions about modules and dependencies. Does the
order of modules listed in the parent pom.xml matter? For example, if C
depends on A and B depends on C, then the correct order would be:A, C B
<module>A</module>
<module>C</module>
<module>B</module>
If I specify instead
<module>A</module>
<module>B</module>
<module>C</module>, will Maven pick up the right dependency order and
build as if I had written A,C,B?
Order doesn't matter, Maven does well. But you could simply try. ^_^
As for my second question, if I declare a dependency in a project, will
that artifact be automatically built and deployed to maven repo so that
it would be picked up for build? For example, if I declare:
<dependency>
<groupId>b</groupId>
<artifactId>a</artifactId>
<version>1.0</version>
</dependency>
Will Maven go and build a for me or do I need to include a as a
submodule? Thanks.
Maven won't build it - if your dependency was Spring, Maven wouldn't build
Spring. So, yes, you need to include a as a submodule.
