Hi list, when using Maven2, it appear to be recommended to have the following directory structure for a multi-module build:
- pom.xml (parent pom of all modules) --- module1 +-- pom.xml --- module2 +-- pom.xml etc When using such a structure with continuum, if I commit a change in module28, then EVERY module will be rebuilt: indeed the parent pom will be rebuilt because the change is "under" its scm tree, and all the other modules will therefore we rebuilt because of a "dependencies change" on the parent pom. When trying to avoid this, I attempted to use the following structure: --- parent +-- pom.xml --- module1 +-- pom.xml --- module2 +-- pom.xml However, this prevents a number of M2 functionnalities, such as, for instance, the usage of the release plugin for the whole project (as far as I understood). What are the best practices when using Continuum and M2 with multimodule builds together ? How does the Maven team avoids this issue when building Maven2 and Continuum themselves with Continuum ? Thanks in advance. -- Julien
