HI Maxim,
Here is how I do child projects:
<parent>
<groupId>com.meterware.totalizer</groupId>
<artifactId>totalizer</artifactId>
<version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<relativePath>..</relativePath>
</parent>
<artifactId>server</artifactId>
Note that I am specifying the parent project, but neither the group nor the
version for the child project - just the artifactId. The others are
automatically inherited.
Regards,
Russ
