Property expansion does not work for goals in plugin executions ---------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-4319 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4319 Project: Maven 2 Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: 2.2.1, 2.2.0, 2.1.0, 2.1.0-M1 Environment: Apache Maven 2.2.1 (r801777; 2009-08-06 21:16:01+0200) Java version: 1.6.0_02 Default locale: de_DE, platform encoding: Cp1252 OS name: "windows xp" version: "5.1" arch: "x86" Family: "windows" Reporter: Marc Rohlfs I am using a (global) property to control the goal(s) of the Assembly Plugin to be executed: {code:xml} <goals> <goal>${build.assembly.goal}</goal> </goals> {code} The property is pre-defined in my (parent) POM and may be overwritten using the {{-D}} option on the command line or (for convenience) using a profile. This is (was) a very convenient way to switch from ZIP (goal {{single}}) to directory (goal {{directory-single}}) packaging during development of programm packages. When I tried to upgrade from Maven 2.0.10 to Maven 2.2.1 I noticed that this doesn't work any more. I also tried intermediate versions and it seems that 2.0.10 was the last version where it works. -- 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
