Answer 1

Just an update to Sean's answer, I have had to make some minor adjustments in order to adapt it to the latest groovy maven plugin version:

          org.codehaus.gmaven
          groovy-maven-plugin
          
            
              org.codehaus.groovy
              groovy-all
              2.0.1
            
          
          
                
                    setproperty
                    validate
                    
                        execute
                    
                    
                        
        project.properties['basedir']=project.parent.basedir.absolutePath.replace('\\','/');
