Jason van Zyl closed MNG-2886. ------------------------------ Resolution: Fixed You must be explicit and that's the way it will stay. Adding a directory should not change maven's behavior, everything is controled from the POM. This is not Ant. > Dynamically includes <module> dependencies if subfolder is available > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MNG-2886 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2886 > Project: Maven 2 > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Reactor and workspace > Affects Versions: 2.0.5 > Reporter: Dominick More > Fix For: Reviewed Pending Version Assignment > > > We would like to use Maven to build our multi-project using the <modules/> > construct in a top level pom file. The project contains common libraries and > war files. Since the war files are not dependent on each other, developers > are used to exclude all other war project directories out of their SCM load > configurations to reduce update time. Currently we have implemented ANT in > such a way that if a project directory is not available at build time it will > excluded from the build configuration. Since the sub-module pom contains the > <dependency/> reference to a sibling build configuration anyway the build > will fail if the dependency cannot be found. > Currently if a module is defined for which no project exists you get the > following error: > E:\Temp\Maven\AXN>mvn install > [INFO] Scanning for projects... > [INFO] > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > [ERROR] FATAL ERROR > [INFO] > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > [INFO] Error building POM (may not be this project's POM). > Project ID: unknown > Reason: Could not find the model file 'E:\Temp\Maven\AXN\xyz\pom.xml'. > ... > On further investigation I located the source of the exception is being > thrown in the method org.apache.maven.DefaultMaven::collectProjects where the > modules list added at line 496: > modulesFiles.add( moduleFile ); > The following change would do the trick... > if( moduleFile.isFile()) { > modulesFiles.add( moduleFile ); > } -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
