Hi Dave
I dont think you are the only person that does not want to know the absolute
URL of your pages, I think that absolutely OK. :-)
Here is what i have that actually works sometimes and generates a parent
link from the child projects.
What you will have to do is to point the maven site plugin relatively to the
following site.xml file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<project name="DBWC">
<bannerLeft>
<name>Maven</name>
<src>http://maven.apache.org/images/apache-maven-project.png</src>
<href>http://maven.apache.org/</href>
</bannerLeft>
<bannerRight>
<src>http://www.quest.com/images/common/quest_logo.gif</src>
<href>http://www.quest.com/</href>
</bannerRight>
<body>
<links>
<item name="Apache" href="http://www.apache.org/"; />
<item name="Maven 1.x" href="http://maven.apache.org/maven-1.x/"/>
<item name="Maven 2" href="http://maven.apache.org/"/>
</links>
<menu ref="parent" />
<menu ref="modules" />
<menu ref="reports" />
</body>
</project>
The important thing there is the yellow colored link to the parent project.
If you cant create a realive link to the that file , then just create a
src/main/site directory in each of your projects and place this xml there
too.
Dont forget put the link to the site-plugin
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-site-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.0</version>
<configuration>
<port>9000</port>
<tempWebappDirectory>${site.dir}/tempdir</tempWebappDirectory>
<stagingSiteURL>${url.site}</stagingSiteURL>
<siteDirectory>{relative_link}</siteDirectory>
</configuration>
</plugin>
Frankly i still have sometimes problems with that configuration, I didn't
figure it out when it does not work well, but there are some cases that it
doesnt.
Good Luck with that.. :-)
