| <question>How does the IDEA plugin work on multi-projects?</question> |
| <answer> |
| <p> |
| Maven IDEA Plugin, by default, creates the project file (*.ipr) and |
| the workspace file (*.iws) from where the root pom is located. Then |
| module files (*.iml) are created for each of the projects inside the |
| reactor. |
| </p> |
| <p> |
| If some projects depend on another project in the reactor, then the |
| reference to the project is given instead of the hard-references to |
| the local repository copies of the artifacts. |
