I work on a large multi-project build. We produce a framework that other teams use. Although all of the teams that use our framework know who we are, it occurred to me that it would be considerate to make sure that there is metadata in the generated artifact that would give someone information about the framework, or who might be responsible for it, assuming someone knew to look inside the artifact.
I'm aware of the various POM properties like "organization", "contributors", et cetera. It would be great if I could fill out these properties in the top-level parent POM of the project and have those properties be set in all the effective POMs stored in the artifact jar of each subproject. I tried a simple-minded test of setting the "organization/name" property in the top-level POM and building all of the artifacts. Unsurprisingly, this didn't put that value into the generated subproject POM files. What's the simplest way to store this information in a single place and have it appear in all of the subprojects? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
