You're welcome.

You need to declare the pom in which the plugin is defined ("root pom") as <parent> in all the poms that should inherit the plugin execution. As I posted it it works like that for Maven 2.0.8.

Thanks Stefan :-)

So far I've added the <build> part to each of the including jar's poms and
it works. Is it possible to configure it so the plugin configuration is in
one place ? Didn't work out when i placed it in root pom.

Hi,

one option is to extract the B jar using the dependency plugin:
   <build>
     <plugins>
       <plugin>
         <artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId>
         <version>2.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
         <executions>
           <execution>
             <id>expand common JSP fragments</id>
             <goals>
               <goal>unpack-dependencies</goal>
             </goals>
             <phase>generate-resources</phase>
             <configuration>
               <includeGroupIds>your.group.id</includeGroupIds>
               <includeArtifactIds>yourArtifactId</includeArtifactIds>
               <excludeTransitive>true</excludeTransitive>
               <includes>**/*.xml</includes>
<outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/generated-resources</outputDirectory>
             </configuration>
           </execution>
         </executions>
       </plugin>

adapt this a bit, add a dependency to the artifact your.group.id:yourArtifactId (where your shared resources are placed in src/main/resources) and off you go.

HTH,

Hi!

Is it possible to directly include in a jar (lets call it A.jar)
class/resource files from other module (lets call it B.jar). ? What I
have
is 5 jars/modules that need to have exactly the same property/xml files
inside them, so I would like to keep the resources in a separate module,
in
one place, and just include them in 5 jars.

Thanks for any help,
Anne

PS. Please don't be cryptic, I'm very new to maven ;)
