Petar Tahchiev commented on MASSEMBLY-331:
------------------------------------------
Hi Jon,
you are right - the command line should override the pom.xml properties, and,
indeeed, this is a bug.
The point is that pre-(maven 2.0.9) the -D properties were system properties
and now in maven 2.0.9 they are session execution properties.
I have created a patch for this issue. It involves changing 6 classes:
-AssemblyFormatUtils.java
-ModuleSetAssemblyPhase.java
-AssemblerConfigurationSource.java
-AddArtifactTask.java
-AddDependencySetsTask.java
-AbstractAssemblyMojo.java
The bad side of this patch is that it changes the signatures of several public
methods.
It also breaks several of the test-cases.
I have also created a patch to repair the test-cases, so that they function as
before.
Cheers, Petar.

> Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-2
> Reporter: Jon Osborn
>
> For the following assembly.xml:
> <assembly>
> <formats>
> <format>tar.gz</format>
> </formats>
> <includeBaseDirectory>false</includeBaseDirectory>
> <fileSets>
> <fileSet>
> <directory>src/main/resources/appcontent</directory>
>
> <outputDirectory>${build.environment}/${build.view}/appcontent</outputDirectory>
> <includes>
> <include>**</include>
> </includes>
> </fileSet>
> </fileSets>
> </assembly>
> ${build.environment} and ${build.view} are declared as <properties> in parent
> POM. They retain their 'default' value and cannot be overridden from the
> command line using the -D (-Dbuild.environment=UAT) syntax.
> The intent of the properties is to build the tar.gz file with different paths
> based on the two variables.
