I'm trying to whip together something so that I can support binary and source distros for my
project.
What I thought I would do is invoke "dist" in each sub-project, and add a postGoal to copy the
distros up to a directory of my master project.
First step is to see what "dist" does in this context ...
bash-2.05b$ maven multiproject:goal -Dgoal=dist

I looked at the code referenced in the error:
<ant:available property="maven.dist.build.xml.avail"
file="${basedir}/build.xml"/>
<j:choose>
<j:when test="${maven.dist.build.xml.avail}">
<ant:copy todir="${maven.dist.src.assembly.dir}" file="build.xml"/>
</j:when>
<j:otherwise>
<attainGoal name="ant:generate-build"/>
<ant:move
file="build.xml"
tofile="${maven.dist.src.assembly.dir}/build.xml"/>
</j:otherwise>
</j:choose>
Strangely, the output doesn't indicate that "ant:generate-build" goal was
attained/executed/whatever, so you can see why the generated build.xml would be missing. Any
suggestions?
