Maven multiple parents for project
Hi, I would like to share some code between my frontend and backend application and I would like to do that by having a maven Parent for the whole project with 3 submodules. I will call them:
- root - whole project parent project
- frontend - just frontend specific code
- backend - spring boot project
- common - shared code
but I don't want to make
root being a child of spring boot. backend has to be a child for spring boot, but it would have to be a child of root too.
I dont know hot to say this better.10 Replies
