At first blush this change seems like a bad idea to me. I consider the reactor/multi-module project an atomic unit and this change runs counter to that. Why do you want a parent installed instead of everything working cohesively within the reactor?
Are you trying to build part of the tree for some reason and cannot build it all together? Or are you stepping into a module and trying to build it by itself? I understand that there are limitations and there needs to be a way to build within the context of a reactor regardless of where you are but I’m not sure I want us to have to support this feature forever. Can you provide a little more background please. > On Jul 23, 2015, at 2:06 PM, Stephen Connolly > <stephen.alan.conno...@gmail.com> wrote: > > It's not completely ugly, but it does entangle dependencies further which I > view as ugly. > > There is an existing todo above this code to move the validation to a > different module, so I believe this will all get removed at that time > > On Thursday, July 23, 2015, Benson Margulies <bimargul...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> If this change is so ugly, why are there no comments explaining the ugly? >> On Jul 23, 2015 10:48 AM, "jvanzyl" <g...@git.apache.org <javascript:;>> >> wrote: >> >>> Github user jvanzyl commented on the pull request: >>> >>> https://github.com/apache/maven/pull/60#issuecomment-124129817 >>> >>> I'm out in the middle of nowhere, but i'll cancel the vote, test and >>> re-roll once I'm back to civilization. >>> >>> >>> --- >>> If your project is set up for it, you can reply to this email and have >> your >>> reply appear on GitHub as well.
