Eduardo Martins commented on MNG-3487: -------------------------------------- Please note that this feature implies that the install phase must put a POM with the properties injected in the M2 repo, otherwise the POM is broken. > The POM model should support not only <properties/> but also <property-files/> > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: MNG-3487 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3487 > Project: Maven 2 > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: POM > Reporter: Eduardo Martins > > Currently there is no support for properties files in the POM, users often > need this feature and use plugins to achieve that, but plugins can't touch > elements in the POM which use a property to define some value, simply because > that is defined before any phase is done. > I recommend adding a new <project/> element, <property-files>, which can have > <property-file/> childs. Maven will load all properties in this file (no xml, > usual format of property.name=property.value) the same way if they were > defined inside <properties/>. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
