Mickaƫl Floc'hlay commented on MASSEMBLY-363:
---------------------------------------------

I think the priority of this issue should be higher than "minor".

In my case, I have a to-be-filtered file in which i wrote
something.name=${something.name}
which results, after being filtered by the assembly plugin, to :
something.name=<the content of my pom file pom.name>

This occurs whether a property something.name is set in the filtering file or 
not.

As naming a property .name is pretty current, this issue can be really annoying 
and should be resolved with a higher priority.

>             Project: Maven 2.x Assembly Plugin
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 2.2-beta-2

>            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

> I've seen similar reports in MWAR-133 and MRESOURCES-20 but I cannot find a
