I need to give it a try, but I think there is no "smart" dependency resolution for the parent. Those specifying 3.3.0* will receive 3.3.0* as parent; those specifying 0.0.4-SNAPSHOT will get 0.0.4-SNAPSHOT.What actually happens if you build everything from root and multiple parents are used ? how does maven resolve that some is using 3.3.0* and others 0.0.4-?
The root pom.xml of each module has /parent/version changed.For more concrete stuff, here is what you should read in your root pom.xml <parent> <groupId>org.jboss.tools</groupId> <artifactId>parent</artifactId> <version>3.3.0.Beta3-SNAPSHOT</version> <relativePath>../build/parent/pom.xml</relativePath> </parent> This will poll the parent from JBoss Nexus. We publish the parent to Nexus in a CI job. You should also include this to ensure your build can find it:Which areas was this changed for ? Just the build setup or did you change the modules ?
Ok, I just put https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-11615 in my TODO-list.for the repositories setup: Just put this in settings.xml like needed for many other jboss.org projects: https://community.jboss.org/wiki/MavenGettingStarted-Developers
