Bue Pierre-Christophe commented on ARCHETYPE-406:
-------------------------------------------------
Not exactly.
ACRHETYPE-397 deals with a problem in the display on the use of standard
properties, such as artifactId.substring, and so on, but they are correctly
evaluate by Velocity in the generation step of the archetype.
This bug wants to manage correctly the use of user-defined properties in the
same way standard properties are, such as the description of this bug
spotlights.

> Standard properties (artifactId, groupId, ...) are supported in Velocity
> expressiosn, but still does not work with user defined properties. For
> example:
> <requiredProperty key="a">
> <defaultValue>${artifactId}.substring(0,1).toUpperCase()</defaultValue>
> </requiredProperty>
> with artifactId=toto will give a=T, but
> <requiredProperty key="b"/>
> <requiredProperty key="a">
> <defaultValue>${b}.substring(0,1).toUpperCase()</defaultValue>
> </requiredProperty>
> with b=toto will give a=${b}.substring(0,1).toUpperCase()
