The project this time will contain many modules. We will still use Maven in this chapter. We will set up a so-called multi-module project in Maven. In such a project, the directory contains the directories of the modules and pom.xml. There is no source code in this top-level directory. The pom.xml file in this directory serves the following two purposes:
- It references the modules and can be used to compile, install, and deploy all the modules together
- It defines parameters for the modules that are the same for all of them
Every pom.xml has a parent and this pom.xml is the parent of the pom.xml files in the module directories. To define the modules, the pom.xml file contains the following lines:
<modules>
<module>SortSupportClasses</module>
<module>SortInterface</module>
<module>bubble</module...
