My use case: I'm running the maven docbkx plugin to produce both pdf and html outputs from multiple docbook sources.
The docbkx plugin says to use two executions (with ids, for instance, of "html" and "pdf", one for each of the outputs). I would like to reuse this setup 4 times in my builds, because I have 4 "books" to process in this project. I'm trying to factor out common configuration for these, into a pluginManagement element, having 2 configurations with those ids of "html" and "pdf". I understand that the configuration merging is done by matching "ids". My trouble is that when I now try to write my 8 executions (2 per book), I have to write 8 unique "ids", which can't match up with the 2 ids in the pluginManagement. Is there a maven best practice for how to factor this? I know the one "solution" of splitting up the 4 docbooks into 4 separate projects, but I'm looking for another solution since I would rather not split these up. -Marshall --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
