Parent POM with Resources
Hi @ Maven,
I have a parent pom for a few projects, defining all my default properties.
I also defined my Checkstyle and PMD reports here. Now I'd like to include
my checkstyle and pmd config files as well.
As far as I know I cannot include XMLs in a project that has a
<packaging>pom</packaging>. I already tried to build a resources project
packaged as a jar and define a dependency in my parent pom. Maven doesn't
complain about this, but I still don't know how to access my config files...
So here are my questions:
Is it possible to directly include configs (XMLs) in a parent pom?
- OR -
How do I access files that are actually located in another project?
- OR -
Does anyone have a better solution for defining my report props for a bunch
of projects?
Regards
Nick

Except that the build-tools jar should be referred to as an extension,
not a dependency of the plugin. My experience was that Maven would
only try ibiblio to look for the build-tools jar if I left it as a
plugin dependency.
See the bottom of this checkstyle plugin doc for an example:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-checkstyle-plugin/customize.html

Common practice is indeed to have a build-tools module, with packaging jar.
To use this module (with checkstyle), in the build/plugins part, of your
parent POM:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-checkstyle-plugin</artifactId>
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.myApplication</groupId>
<artifactId>build-tools</artifactId>
<version>1.2-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>
</dependencies>
<configuration>
<configLocation>your_checks.xml</configLocation>
</configuration>
</plugin>
Every sub-project will now use this checkstyle configuration.
Denis.
