[jira] Created: (MNG-4733) project.build.directory should be settable by default

project.build.directory should be settable by default
-----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MNG-4733
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4733
             Project: Maven 2 & 3
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Apache or Maven Parent poms
    Affects Versions: 2.2.1
            Reporter: Joseph Walton
            Priority: Minor
         Attachments: target-dir.diff

I'd like to be able to use a different target directory for projects without having to edit their poms directly. I can set project.build.directory in my parent pom but would also like to be able to make the change when building third-party projects.

I have two use cases.

1. A temporary build that doesn't affect the target directories used by Eclipse

e.g. mvn -Dtarget.dir=target.tmp test

2. A complete build outside the source tree of a multi-module project

e.g. mvn -Dtarget.dir=/tmp/build/\${project.artifactId} test

I attach a simple patch to the superpom that allows this.
