you can use maven deploy task which will control the deploy order to
1)deploy child modules
2)then deploy the current parent project
<!-- lets say you have jar1 and jar2 which is used to construct (parent) ear project e.g. where the pom.xml looks like -->
<project xmlns="
http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0"
xmlns:xsi="
http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation="
http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0
http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<groupId>package</groupId>
<artifactId>parent-artifact</artifactId>
<version>1.5</version>
</project>
<modules>
<module>jar1</module>
<module>jar2</module>
</modules>
</project>
<!-- the jar1 child pom would reference the parent-artifact like this: -->
<project xmlns="
http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="
http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="
http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
<modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
<parent>
<groupId>package</groupId>
<artifactId>parent-artifact</artifactId>
<version>1.5</version>
</parent>
<groupId>package</groupId>
<artifactId>jar1</artifactId>
<version>1.5</version>
......
</project>
<!-- ..............use the above jar1 project to copy to jar2 ............... -->
cd parent-artifact
execute and deploy all module pom.xml:
mvn deploy:deploy-file
<!-- jar1 is compiled, packaged and deployed -->
<!-- jar2 is compiled, packaged and deployed -->
<!-- parent-artifact is compiled, packaged and deployed -->
