[jira] Created: (MNG-1890) Optionally split up/partition pom.xml with XInclude

Optionally split up/partition pom.xml with XInclude
---------------------------------------------------

         Key: MNG-1890
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-1890
     Project: Maven 2
        Type: Improvement

  Components: POM  
    Versions: 2.0.1    
    Reporter: Geoffrey


A pom.xml can get really big, considering it holds more information then maven.xml and project.xml together.
In Java is a bad idea to have a class with more then 500 lines.
In Spring they use the <import tag to split up applicationContext files.
But there already is a standard to partition xml files: XInclude.

>From a user perspective a partitioned pom.xml would be a lot more maintable since we could decide to make a
pom-dependencies.xml etc if we we want.

Problems:
- Sending the pom to the repository should merge it.
- Continuum needs a non-partioned pom
- pom processing mevenide's etc.

Olivier Lamy commented on MNG-1890:
-----------------------------------

You can easily do it with a super pom which includes all your commons dependencies.
Then use this in your others poms.
  <parent>
    <groupId>groupId</groupId>
    <artifactId>commons-root-pom</artifactId>
    <version>version</version>
  </parent>
