Well it depends on the three libs.... I was just suggesting a more *maven* way of getting the pom's and the jars into the repo.
if you add the dependencies to the other jars to the poms that you are pushing, then depending on one will pull in its dependents for example if jviewsall depends on both sdmgui and svgdom, all you need is three poms like I had, e.g. %basedir%/sdmgui/pom.xml <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0";> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>com.ilog.jviews</groupId> <artifactId>sdmgui</artifactId> <version>5.5-SNAPSHOT</version> <description>JViews sdmgui library</description> <build> <plugins> <plugin> <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <forceCreation>true</forceCreation> </configuration> </plugin> <plugin> <artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId> <executions> <execution> <phase>package</phase> <goals> <goal>run</goal> </goals> <configuration> <tasks> <copy file="${basedir}/src/jar/${project.artifactId}" tofile="${project.build.directory}/${project.build.finalName}" overwrite="true"/> </tasks> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin> </plugins> </build> </project> %basedir%/svgdom/pom.xml <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0";> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>com.ilog.jviews</groupId> <artifactId>svgdom</artifactId> <version>5.5-SNAPSHOT</version> <description>JViews svgdomlibrary</description> <build> <plugins> <plugin> <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <forceCreation>true</forceCreation> </configuration> </plugin> <plugin> <artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId> <executions> <execution> <phase>package</phase> <goals> <goal>run</goal> </goals> <configuration> <tasks> <copy file="${basedir}/src/jar/${project.artifactId}" tofile="${project.build.directory}/${project.build.finalName}" overwrite="true"/> </tasks> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin> </plugins> </build> </project> %basedir%/jviewsall/pom.xml <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0";> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <groupId>com.ilog.jviews</groupId> <artifactId>jviewsall</artifactId> <version>5.5-SNAPSHOT</version> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>${project.groupId}</groupId> <artifactId>sdmgui</groupId> <version>${project.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>${project.groupId}</groupId> <artifactId>svgdom</groupId> <version>${project.version}</version> </dependency> </dependencies> <description>JViews sdmgui library</description> <build> <plugins> <plugin> <artifactId>maven-jar-plugin</artifactId> <configuration> <forceCreation>true</forceCreation> </configuration> </plugin> <plugin> <artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId> <executions> <execution> <phase>package</phase> <goals> <goal>run</goal> </goals> <configuration> <tasks> <copy file="${basedir}/src/jar/${project.artifactId}" tofile="${project.build.directory}/${project.build.finalName}" overwrite="true"/> </tasks> </configuration> </execution> </executions> </plugin> </plugins> </build> </project> The aggregator pom would just be to help release all of them (as you would a normal maven project) i.e. <project> ... <modules> <module>jviewsall</module> <module>svgdom</module> <module>sdmgui</module> </modules> ... </project> You would not depend on the aggregator 2008/11/6 jgarrison <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Now I'm really confused. > > I have a lot of development experience (20+ years) but am a rank newbie > when > it comes to Maven, and I guess I don't understand your response. > > The original issue was with the aggregate POM, not sdmgui (or the other two > libraries).
