I have a multi-module project with a common parent pom to all modules and an aggregator/build pom. I am trying to use the maven-versions-plugin to update/set the versions of all my modules, but it keeps skipping the child modules.
Project layout: - common/pom.xml (build pom) - common/superpom/pom.xml (parent pom) - module1/pom.xml (module1 pom) - module2/pom.xml (module2 pom)
common/pom.xml:
<project>
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<groupId>com.bic</groupId>
<artifactId>builder</artifactId>
<version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<packaging>pom</packaging>
<name>Builder</name>
<modules>
<module>../module1</module>
<!-- POM Component Versionning -->
<module>../module2</module>
</modules>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>versions-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.1</version>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
</project>
I have tried adding the plugin to the build pom (common/pom.xml) and then calling:
mvn versions:set -DnewVersion=999999
Maven lists all the props it found in the child modules, so I know it is parsing them all properly:
Props: {project.version=50, project.parent.version=1.0-SNAPSHOT, project.parent.groupId=com.bic, project.artifactId=module1, project.groupId=com.bic, project.parent.artifactId=common}
Props: {project.version=50, project.parent.version=1.0-SNAPSHOT, project.parent.groupId=com.bic, project.artifactId=module2, project.groupId=com.bic, project.parent.artifactId=common}
but it doesn't actually update the versions of any of the module poms, which is what I am looking to do.
[INFO] Reactor Summary:

[INFO] Module1 ........................................ SKIPPED
[INFO] Module2 ........................................ SKIPPED
[INFO] Builder ........................................ SUCCESS [ 2.037 s]

And the update-child-modules
goal doesn't allow me to explictly set a version number for the child modules.
Am I using the plugin incorrectly?
