Properties in pom or from the command line are not resolved before parent pom is tried to load ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-3820 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3820 Project: Maven 2 Issue Type: Improvement Components: Command Line Affects Versions: 2.0.9 Reporter: Lassi Immonen We tried to parametrize the parent version, but it seems to be impossible. The parent must be loadable through <relativePath> that the parametrization works, but when building submodules alone with parent pom only in repository, parametrization is impossible. This is impossible: <parent> <version>${parent_version}</version> </parent> <properties><parent_version>0.5</parent_version> and/or from the command line: -Dparent_version=0.5 Could the properites and command line be resolved BEFORE the parent pom load? -- 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
