Nathaniel Harward commented on MNG-3017:
----------------------------------------
I would like to add that using variables does not seem to work inside the
<missing/> or <exists/> elements. I would like to suggest that variable
interpolation be implemented in these elements to solve this problem and allow
for more flexibility than, for example, just looking for files relative to the
pom directory as a fix.
I tried to get around this problem by using a value of "${basedir}/xxx" or
"${project.basedir}/xxx" with no success. "${basedir}" does not work when run
inside the pom's directory either, so I know no interpolation is not being done
with these elements.
