It's actually not about IDE integration. It's about continous integration.
I have my ci server run the goal "clean cobertura:check" every hour.
This allows me to know within the hour if anyone committed any code that
fails the tests. I only want to generate an artifact for my project once
a day, at night usually.
Problem is, if something changes in project B during the day, project A
won't see the changes because i don't install project B every hour, and
i don't want to. I just run "clean cobertura:check" like in every project.
So, this means that project A will during the day will always be
compiling with the installed artifact of B from the night before. Which
again, isn't what i'd like.
How do you solve this without having to install every project every hour ?

I presume you have this use-case in your IDE, since Maven will NEVER use the
source-code of another project and always refers to the packaged version in
your repository.
What you need is a 'build-project', which contains both projects as modules.
Then Maven will recognize they need eachother and build them in the correct
order. If you use the eclipse-plugin (not sure about other IDEs, I've only
used eclipse so far), the projects will get source-code references to
eachother in eclipse.
Look at this thread, were I already discussed this:

I have a use case where i am developing two projects, and project A
depends on project B.
What i want to do is a mvn clean compile under project A directory and
it will also compile project B and use it's classes as a dependency.
Sounds simple enough but i can't seem to be able to get this use case
working.
The problem is that if i declare the dependency to project B in the
project A pom maven will always look for the installed artifact of B,
which isn't what i want because i don't want to have to install B every
time i try to compile A.
So i guess what i'm looking for is a way to declare that project A
depends on project B current source code and not it's installed artifact.
Am i making any sense ?
Thanks in advance.
