A parent pom have several modules and each module use assembly to build different distribution jars.
Issue:
Building going back to already built modules and recursive
Cause:
One module use assembly as the goal in assembly plugin, this will force maven to build all poms.
Reference:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/attached-mojo.html
assembly:attached
Full name:
org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-assembly-plugin:2.4:attached
This plugin goal has been deprecated:
Use assembly:single instead! The assembly:attached mojo leads to non-standard builds.
Description:
Assemble an application bundle or distribution from an assembly descriptor, WITHOUT first forcing Maven to build all POMs to the
package phase (as is required by the
assembly:assembly goal).
NOTE: This goal should ONLY be run from the command line, and if building a multimodule project it should be used from the root POM. Use the assembly:single goal for binding your assembly to the lifecycle.
