how can I change ${basedir}

[Justinus Menzel <ju...@lbri.lionbioscience.com>]

Hi,

I moved project.xml, maven.xml etc. into a seperate build directory.
Now I have to put a lot of  "../" in places.
Wouldn't it be easier to just say
basedir=..
in project.properties:
or
<baseDir>..</baseDir>
in the POM.
or

maven -d ..
doesn't change ${basedir}, so I don't really know what it does.

or
<project basedir=".."
...
</project>
(like with ant)

Any idea? Many thanks

Justinus
