multiproject recursive nesting problem

[Robert Hernik <ro...@morpheus.co.uk>]

Hello,

I am having some trouble getting the maven multiproject:site generation
to behave how I would like, and I would appreciate any help. 

My project layout:

BuildDir
  |
  +-buildRoot / project.properties
  |
  +-projectA
  |
  +-projectB

My project layout has a buildRoot that is a dummy project containing
project.properties 
(plus a maven.xml and project.xml). builRoot has no source but is the
'parent' dir for 
the multiproject site generation even though it is at the same level in
the dir structure. I am using this flat structure as the projects are
coming from WSAD (Eclipse).

project.properties contains the following entries for multiproject
properties:

maven.multiproject.basedir=../
maven.multiproject.excludes=buildroot/project.xml
maven.multiproject.includes=projectA/project.xml,projectB/project.xml

When I run maven multiproject:site in the buildRoot dir I get the
following generated in 
my html directory:


Docs
  |
  +-multiproject
     |
     +-projectA
     |
     +-projectB

This is precisely what I want, and the generated project site appears OK
in this case. However, when I drill down into projectA and projectB the
following has happened:

Docs
  |
  +-multiproject
     |
     +-projectA
     |   |
     |   +-multiproject
     |      |
     |      +-projectA
     |
     |
     +-projectB
         |
         +-multiproject
            |
            +-projectA
            |  |
            |  +-multiproject
            |     |
            |     +-projectA
            |
            +-projectB

It appears there is some kind of recursion taking place in my
multiproject generation. 
Has anybody got an idea how I can stop this happening/what is wrong in
my properties? 
When I add a few more projects the whole site generation falls over when
the nested paths 
become too long!

Thanks for any help,

Rob.
