luke w patterson commented on MNG-4998:
---------------------------------------

maybe ${project.properties.myProperty} could be initialized if ${myProperty} 
isn't null

how about -

for non-<plugin><configuration> sections:
* ${project.properties.myProperty} is evaluated static/eager to whatever 
${myProperty} evaluates to
* if ${myProperty} is null, then it is left as 
"${project.properties.myProperty}"

for <plugin><configuration> sections:
* ${project.properties.myProperty} is initialized with whatever ${myProperty} 
evaluates to
* plugins can override the initial value
* the "effective-pom"/pre-run interpolation always sees/displays it as 
"${project.properties.myProperty}"

> Variables interpolation: dynamic in Maven 2, static in Maven 3

>             Project: Maven 2 & 3
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: POM
>    Affects Versions: 3.0.2

> Please, see 
> http://maven.40175.n5.nabble.com/Variables-interpolation-dynamic-in-Maven-2-static-in-Maven-3-td3360336.html.
> It demonstrates two examples where expression with ${variables} are 
> interpolated differently in Maven 2 and Maven 3: Maven 2 allows to update 
> <properties> and effect expressions interpolated later, Maven 3 also allows 
> to update <properties> but all expressions are interpolated with their old 
> values. 
> I believe Maven 2 dynamic behavior is much more preferable than Maven 3 
> Ant-like "stickiness" to what's defined in <properties>.
