Doug,
thanks for your reply.
Yes that's true, Maven has no knowledge of projet A. But it knows that A
is a dependency. So it should include A as a reference in module B using
the finalName: is it completly non sens?
Moreover I found dangerous that the behavior is not the same when
building projet B alone or when building within a multimodule.
finalName is not used for the repository which is perfect. But the
finalName doesn't only effect the name of the artifact but also
references in ClassPath entry of the manifest file, references in
application.xml for EAR or references in WEB-INF/lib for web module...

Yann,
This is to be expected. When running maven in your B project, maven has no
knowledge of project A as a module to be built and referenced, only as a
dependency that needs to be retrieved from a repository and added to the
classpath.
In addition, finalName only effects the name of the artifact generated in
the target directory. If you install/deploy the same artifact it will
(should) have the standard naming of ${artifactId}-${version}. This is A
Good Thing, as it prevents ambiguity in the repository.
HTH,

Hi,
I try to use the finalName in my parent pom as following:
<finalName>${artifactId}</finalName> (without the version number)
If I run maven from the parent pom everything works fine: all my
artifacts are generated without the version number. and also the
classpath entry of the manifest.mf file is correctly set.
For instance I get :
parent
--- A module
--- B module (with a dependency on A)
So it generates B.jar with a Manifest containning "ClassPath: A.Jar"
Now If I run maven from B module it generates a B.jar but with a
manifest containing "ClassPath: A-1.2.1.Jar" for instance.
I get exactly the same behaviour with an EAR module that generate the
application.xml => module are not generated with the correct name...
If I run maven from the parent pom then the application.xml is generated
correctly
Did I miss something ?
Yann.
