Filter replaces all variables ending in ., .url, .file, etc. with corresponding
value from POM

Key: MASSEMBLY-363
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-363
Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-2
Environment: Win32, Maven 2.0.9
Reporter: Stephen Robinson
Priority: Minor
A resource file (a Unix shell file) with this definition
: ${BASE_DIR:=..}
results in this after being filtered by the assembly plugin
: MavenProject: catmktg:FlexRxProject:T1.4.0 @ F:\FlexRx\checkouts\pom.xml
The expectation is that '..' would be left alone as there is no definition for
this in our context. Turns out there is in ${project}, however. Specifying
${.url} and ${.file}, etc. result in replacements same as ${project.url} and
${project.file} as well. This seems like a bug but perhaps it is a feature that
needs some refinement.
The workaround in our case is to quote the dots ('..') which works when using
it in a Unix path. However, this may not suffice in other cases.
I've seen similar reports in MWAR-133 and MRESOURCES-20 but I cannot find a
report in MASSEMBLY.
