Fwd: properties references
Hi,
I created a maven structure with a parent pom and for the moment 2 modules
(web, ejb). I was wondering whether it's possible to references properties
of those underdeath modules from the parent pom?
Something like ${modules.ejb.build.directory}... Is there a reference on
this topic? I were not able to find anything on that subject the maven
site....
Thanks, regards
Valentin Jacquemin

I'm not familiar with the glassfish plugin. Eitehr the plugin has built in
support for using an artifact dependency or you have to use the dependency
plugin to first fetch the (jar) artifact and then point the glassfish plugin
to use that jar.
dependency plugin goal:

I created a pom dedicated for the deployment and declared dependencies on my
ejb/web projects but now how can I reference the artifact in the repository
from glassfish-plugin elements?
I am a beginner sorry...

No no it's only a personal prototype that i am creating on my own... I am
not really accustomed to maven yet.
Creating a separate project for the deployment could be the way for me.
Thanks!

What you have is an aggregating pom, which happens to be the parent pom as
well (I guess).
Why not create a separate project that does the deployment? It should have
dependencies on the artifacts that you want to deploy. You shouldn't
configure the glassfish deploy plugin to use a build/target folder of
another project but you should get the artifact from local/remote repo. I'm
not familiar with the glassfish plugin so I don't know if it can do that
itself or if you need to use the dependency plugin as well to fetch the
artifact first.
Or you could have the glassfish plugin in each project deploying that
project's artifact. Common configuration for the plugin could be handled in
the parent through pluginManagement. I very much boils down to why you're
doing the deployment. Is it part of integration test for instance? Or is it
some kind of feature for developers to easily get it deployed?

Here is my structure:
pom
|-------- ejb
| |----- pom
|--------web
|----- pom
In parent pom i use the glassfish plugin to deploy each artifact produced
(ejb, web). In the glassfish plugin i have to specify each component to
deploy and I wanted to fetch the build directory, project name for each one
but I am not able til now.... I use the glassfish plugin in the parent
because every component will be deployed in the same domain, thus i can set
only once the glassfish instance config...
This may sound weird for sure... I am open for better solutions.

Out of a logical (design) perspective that sounds weird. The parent
shouldn't have any dependency on the siblings; it's the other way around.
Are you talking about a parent project or an aggregating project?
