Project configuration file - pom.xml
Lets look at the basic structure of the pom.xml of the Weblinks Module and then dissect its contentLet's review the Web Links module's POM (project object model) file. As with other maven projects, the POM file lists modules the project depends on, called "dependencies." It assigns a unique identifier for the Web Links module jar file (called an artifact) and includes instructions for building and releasing the module.
The entire POM file appears here, followed by explanations for individual sections.

The parent tag specifies compatibility with IGB (parent tag references the parent tag in the IGB code base and also indicates that the module is compatible with IGB version 8.6.0 is supported), identifies the project and artifact, and identifies the parent POM using a relative pathand higher. See https://maven.apache.org/guides/introduction/introduction-to-dependency-mechanism.html for more details on how the inheritance mechanism in Maven works. The benefits will be obvious when we discuss the dependency tag below.
