-----------------------------------

I expect maven-core to be changed so that I can turn on/off the automatic
calculation of child URLs as an option which is by default on (current
behaviour so nothing will change unless configured explicitly).
{quote}
Instead of a boolean on/off switch, I would suggest the following attribute
that controls how a value is *transformed* when it is inherited:
{code:xml}
<url inherit="${inherited}/{project.artifactId}">http://example/parent</url>
{code}
The rules would be like this:
If the element's value is given, use its value as-is
If the element's value is not given, inherit from the parent by applying the
transformation in the parent element's inherit attribute. Variables like
{{project.artifactId}} are evaluated w.r.t. to the child (as if they were
element content) and the special {{inherited}} variable is evaluated to the
element content of the parent POM.
A child of the above example POM would thus has an {{<url>}} of
{{http://example/parent/child}}; in other words, the above attribute value just
describes the current behaviour (and thus should be the default for {{<url>}}).

> Key: MNG-5951

> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Inheritance and Interpolation
> Affects Versions: 3.0.5, 3.1.1, 3.2.5, 3.3.9

> What I am trying to achieve is
> the definition of a project.url in a parent pom
> in a way that all children inherit a url ending with
> {code}
> ${project.groupId}/${project.artifactId}/${project.version}/
> {code}
> in order to be able to publish sites of all artifacts in all versions in
> parallel
> without having to redefine the url in every child pom.
> This is currently not working as expected in maven due to the default child
> urls calculation which leads to urls that add up parent urls like
> http://my.domain.de/sites/de.enterprise.calculatorsGroupId/calculator-artifactID/1.0.0-SNAPSHOT/internetAppParentPOM/calculatorParentPom/calculator-artifactID/
> The part *"internetAppParentPOM/calculatorParentPom/"* is added by automatic
> child url calculation (those are the artifactIds of all parent poms beneath
> our enterprise parent pom where the url is defined) and *is expexted to not
> be there at all*. The repeated artifactID at the end of the url is
> superfluous as well but tollerable.
> I expect maven-core to be changed so that I can turn on/off the automatic
> calculation of child URLs as an option which is by default on (current
> behaviour so nothing will change unless configured explicitly).
> See the discussion in MSITE-672.
> As this can not be done in the maven-site-plugin there needs to be a change
> in Maven itself (core), in Maven Model Builder, ie the way effective model is
> calculated, and more precisely in the inheritance step:
> http://maven.apache.org/ref/current/maven-model-builder/.
