[Jboss-dev-forums] [Design of JBoss Build System] - Re: Requirements - Top level build - structure

[<ad...@jb...>]

So a standalone build, just defines itself as the only primary component.

A federated build allows you to "extend" other top level builds.

Another example of federation would be to develop two builds together.
e.g. the cache developers might build a workspace like:


  | <project>
  |    <extends name="jbossas"/>
  |    <extends name="jbosscache"/>
  | </project>
  | 

Allowing them to build jbossas and jbosscache from source together.
This would automatically override jbossas's inclusion of jbosscache as a binary
inclusion and make it a source project alongside the other jbossas components.
