Phil Steitz commented on MASSEMBLY-189: --------------------------------------- I had a similar problem trying to get ${project.build.finalName} interpolated so I could set the baseDirectory of my source distro to ${project.build.finalName}-src. This can be worked around by using ${artifactId}-${version}-src instead; but the first interpolation should work. > plugin not correctly interpolating POM variables like project.build.directory > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MASSEMBLY-189 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-189 > Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.1 > Environment: I used both released version 2.1 and also 2.2-SNAPSHOT > Reporter: Ray Suliteanu > Priority: Critical > > I have a assembly descriptor file with ${project.build.directory} in the > <source> element of a <file>. I get an error "Failed to create assembly: File > to filter not found" because the file path has "${project.build.directory}" > rather than the value of ${project.build.directory}. > I have traced the problem to AssemblyInterpolator.interpolateElementValue(). > It tries to look up build.directory in ReflectionValueExtractor.evaluate() > rather than project.build.directory, and it can't evaluate build.directory.
