[jira] Commented: (MNG-2751) Resource inheritance isn't additive

["Jason Shao (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

Jason Shao commented on MNG-2751:
---------------------------------

Still the case as of 2.2.1 - though I can't change the Affect Versions. If this is not going to be addressed, I'd like to get the documentation fixed, from http://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-the-pom.html

> I have an inheritance model as such:
> Parent_POM (General dependencyManagement, pluginManagement, etc)
> |-->Base_POM (global dependency inclusion, default goal, default plugins, etc)
>      |-->Artifact_POM (declares specific artifact type functionality, resources, profiles, etc)
>           |-->Project_POM (project specific dependencies, resources, etc)
> I am attempting to create an hierarchy that will enable a new project to get up and running with very little modification. The issue I am having is if build.resources are declared in the Project_POM they are wiping the Artifact_POM's declarations.
> I think that resources should always be additive. If nothing else add an <inherited> tag a la the plugin element's <inherited> tag. In lieu of that perhaps a resourceManagement section that exposes resource id's that could be selectively added by the child...
