AFAIK, ${basedir} actually resolves to the current pom.xml's directory,
so if yo run "mvn install" on a multimodule project, the submodules have
a basedir still set to their own directories, not the one of the
multimodule project. Also, if a subproject inherits a property (from the
parent multimodule project) which uses ${basedir}, it will also be
resolved to the subproject's directory.
There is currently no way to get the parent' projects directory (they
are thinking about it for m2.1), unless you do something like ${basedir}/..

Instead of pulling files directly out of other modules (using relative
paths), I would suggest packaging those shared modules by themselves
and adding a dependency on them in both modules, or perhaps use the
assembly plugin to unpack the files you need out of the other module.

So what I'm attempting to do is pull in a resource from another modules

/toplevel/project/module1, that would help. Instead we'll continue to
use relative paths.
Bummer...

Oh, okay. By default, all paths are relative to basedir already, so I'm
not
sure why you'd need it. But in my setup, this still works:
<resource>
<directory>${basedir}/foo</directory>
</resource>
Again, I'm not sure what it means with multiple modules, but it should
at
least get resolved. What does you pom look like, and what results are
you
seeing?
