Hi all, I've used the maven release plugin for a long time, but I have always used it in situations when the room POM was the parent POM at the same time.
Now, I am a project where that's not an option, but they still want to use the maven release plugin. Instead, their structure is as follows: pom.xml --- reactor pom (listing modules) -- bla-parent (pom.xml lists plugins, dependencies,etc.) -- bla-model (regular pom.xml) -- bla-ddl (regular pom.xml) You get the point. Here is the reactor's pom.xml: *************** <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd";> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>bla</groupId> <artifactId>bla-reactor</artifactId> <packaging>pom</packaging> <name>Bla Reactor</name> <version>${parent.version}</version> <parent> <groupId>bla</groupId> <artifactId>bla-parent</artifactId> <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version> <relativePath>bla-parent</relativePath> </parent> <modules> <module>bla-ddl</module> <module>bla-common</module> <module>bla-model</module> <module>bla-persistence</module> <module>bla-web</module> </modules> </project> *************** Here is how moduleOne's pom.xml looks like: *************** <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"; xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd";> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>bla</groupId> <artifactId>bla-model</artifactId> <packaging>jar</packaging> <name>Bla Model</name> <version>${parent.version}</version> <parent> <groupId>bla</groupId> <artifactId>bla-parent</artifactId> <version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version> <relativePath>../bla-parent</relativePath> </parent> *************** When I run 'mvn release:prepare' from the root directory (the one that hosts the reactor POM), I end up with this: ********************* ... ...
