[jira] Commented: (MCLEAN-30) Using a parent PoM to clean multiple
modules, if one has a clean plugin defined for custom directories, custom
directory will not be deleted even though it says it is
[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCLEAN-30?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=140170#action_140170 ]
Bjorn commented on MCLEAN-30:
-----------------------------
I tracked it down in the source code: the problem is that when clean is called, it checks if it is "execution root" (result to false when called from parent pom) if not it adds the project base directory in front of the additional fileset directory which is wrong.

> In my current situation, I have a parent pom with multiple modules, the final module creates an exploded war in a directory designed to be used by my web server. I have defined a clean plugin to clean the directory I create. If I clean from the child, the directory is deleted. If I call just the clean of the child from the parent the directory is deleted, but if I call the clean for all modules, it prints that the directory is deleted but all files/directories still exist.
