how to specify different file name for pom.xml of a module?
Hi all,
I'd like to keep multiple pom files in the same project with different
dependencies, so that I could build it with "mvn -f pom_2.xml". however,
since my project have sub modules, I'd like it to build using the pom_2.xml
file in module folder, too. but the build "mvn -f pom_2.xml" always goes
to pom.xml in the module folder.
Here's how my project is structured:
└── my-project
├── pom.xml
├── pom_2.xml
└── my-module
├── pom.xml
├── pom_2.xml
Is there a way to specify in pom_2.xml on the name of the pom file to use
for module so that the module can also be built with pom_2.xml? or is this
impossible?
Thank you.
Yuhan

Not a good idea. Neither is profiles. There are several threads around this
in the archive.
You should explain your use case so that we can help you with the right
solution. Why do you want different dependencies?

To answer my own question: just make the name of the module to be the path to the Pom file, for example: <module>my-module/pom_2.xml</module>

Not possible, you may want to try Maven Profile (
