Project Group Build Definition

    The project group level build definition is executed on all of the projects in the group.

[../../images/buildDefGroup.png] Project Group Build Definitions

    To add build defintion to your project group:
    
    [[1]] Under the <<Build Definitions>> tab in the <<Project Information>> screen, click <<Add>>.
    
    [[2]] Supply the values for the necessary fields.

    * Enter your <<POM filename>>, which is very likely the same as previous builds, <<<pom.xml>>>.
    
    * In the <<Goals>> text box, enter your new goals. For example, <<<clean site deploy>>> or <<<release:branch>>>.

    * You may have arguments for Maven, such as <<<--batch-mode --non-recursive>>>.
    Add your arguments in the Arguments text box or leave it empty.

    * Check <<Build Fresh>> to do a fresh checkout from CVS before the build process.
    Check <<Always Build>> if you want to execute the goal every time you build the project.
    If you want this build definition to be your default for building your project,
    check the <<Is it default?>> check box.
    
    * Select your build schedule from the pull-down menu. There will only be the <<<DEFAULT_SCHEDULE>>>
    if you have not defined any others.
    
    * Select from the pull-down menu the <<Build Environment>> for the build goal.
    
    * Select the <<Type>> from the pull-down menu.
    
    * You can supply a short description of the build definition (<<Definition>>).
