How to configure a subproject dependency in Maven without deploying jars?
- by MikeHoss
I googled this and it seems that no one has an answer, yet it seems like such an elementary thing that it should be possible.
I have the following project structure:
parent
---sub-project1
---sub-project2
sub-project2 needs to have sub-project1 as a dependency.
So I have this in sub-project2's pom:
<dependencies>
<dependency>
<artifactId>sub-project1</artifactId>
<groupId>mygroup</groupId>
<version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>
....
When I do this, Maven tries to dowload the sub-project1.jar file, which does not exist because it's not ready for the repo yet.
I tried to put a <scope>import</scope> in the dependency, but that didn't work either -- same result.
So what do I have to do to get Maven to look at sub-project1 when building sub-project2?
