Maven generated zip file contains old war file-CodePudding

I have a multi-module Maven projet, and I want to build a zip file containing all of the files to deliver on the production server, which means a war file and a bunch of shellscripts.

Here some extracts from my parent pom.xml:

    <modules>
        <module>an-fwk</module>
        <module>eloi-model</module>
        <module>eloi-service</module>
        <module>eloi-facade</module>
        <module>eloi-web</module>
    </modules>

    ...

The war file is generated in the eloi-web project. So I have a problem, because parent pom.xml is executed first, so I actually get the my zip file, but with the old version of the war file, before building, and it crashes if I clean first. I don't know how to solve this issue.

CodePudding user response：

I solved the issue by moving the zip assembly to the pom.xml of the eloi-web module. I tried that before, but got other issues because ${basedir} is not the same directory in the module than in the parent. A colleague suggested to use ${basedir}/../, which solved those issues. Not really elegant, but simple and efficient.
