multiproject and navigation.xml

[Michael Niemaz]

Hi all,
    When building a site's documentation using multiproject goal, I
found out that it is not possible to play with the xdocs navigation xml
file in order to add specific menus without interfering with the
generation of the multiproject navbar.
In other words, if you want your root project to display the list of
your sub-project, do not add navigation.xml in your xdocs directory.
Is there a workaround for this? Maybe using the userNav templates? any
help would be appreciated.

You can create a dynamic navigation, using a template like it's done here :

Thanx very much Arnaud indeed!
I did manage some dirty hacks but I really prefer this solution ;-)

Juste one more question: I have sub projects and sub-sub projects,
In order to build them all I found out that I needed to run twice the
multiproject:site goal. First on the sub-subs using the includes
parameter and then on the default target such as:
        <j:set var="maven.multiproject.includes"
value="smartdocument.services/project.xml" />
        <j:set var="goal" value="multiproject:site" />
        <attainGoal name="multiproject:goal" />
       
        <attainGoal name="multiproject:site" />

It produces exactly what I want :
    TOP  
       SUB1
       SUB2
          SUB21
          SUB22
          SUB23
       SUB3
BUT I wonder if it does not run some goals several times. The reason why
I'm asking this is that I had to remove the generation of some reports
to prevent what I suspect are outofmemory errors...

Any ideas?

Actually the includes line can be removed.
