run configuration -> make

Hi,
I have a project with many (maven) modules.

Some of the modules do not compile, yet.

If I have a web application module which compiles (build->make module works fine) and want to run that in a local tomcat I create a new run configuration.
I that run configuration I say "make" to build it before it deploys.

The option "make"  builds the whole project, though. And this doesn't work because some modules do not compile yet.

Shouldn't it just build the module and dependencies?

Is there a workaround?

(using 9.0)

Thanks!
Wallaby
