    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AS7-2007?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12652407#comment-12652407 ] 

John Casey commented on AS7-2007:
---------------------------------

I've written a plugin called org.commonjava.maven.plugins:directory-maven-plugin that has goals:

- execution-root = Resolves to the directory where maven was invoked
- directory-of = uses a <project/> configuration with groupId and artifactId to find another project in the current session, and returns its basedir
- highest-basedir = traverses the parent hierarchies of all current projects, up until it finds a parent that has been resolved instead of loaded locally. Then, it sorts these basedir paths and returns the one closest to the filesystem root. If the top two hits (highest results) are not nested within one another, it will fail.

I'd expect you to use something like these to pin down a particular project basedir reference, and inject it consistently into each project in the session. It may be that you actually need something like a combination of the last two, to reference a particular parent project that was loaded from disk (but may not be in the current session per se). If so, that's another easy one to write.

The plugin is here:

You can take a look at the README.md for more information.
