[jira] [Commented] (JCLOUDS-104) Change labs/cli/karaf to have their own parent POMs separate from the top-level POM

["Andrew Phillips (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCLOUDS-104?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13670606#comment-13670606 ] 

Andrew Phillips commented on JCLOUDS-104:
-----------------------------------------

This will certainly cause some discussion as we've gone in exactly the *opposite* direction recently with the simpler projects, see e.g.:

https://github.com/jclouds/jclouds-labs/commit/1ddd05922575afd280eeb307beff36a6fa27d376

Could you describe the challenges of not having a project POM in a little more detail?

Thanks!

> Currently, jclouds and jclouds-chef each have a parent POM, (repo)/project/pom.xml, which all the other POMs, including the top-level POM, in the project inherit from. jclouds-labs*, jclouds-cli and jclouds-karaf all just have the top-level POM, and everything else inherits from that top-level POM. That makes some processes (like aggregate javadoc and assemblies) done in the top-level POM a bit problematic for the first build of a new version (i.e., in releases). It'd be nice if these projects separated out the parent and top-level POM functionality as well.
