I was using maven-assembly-plugin 2.2-SNAPSHOT and tried to switch to
2.2-beta-2-SNAPSHOT but encountered a problem.
I reference properties from my pom in the assembly descriptor, like this:
<project>
...
<properties>
<my.path>myapp/WEB-INF</my.path>
</properties>
..
</project>
<assembly>
...
<files>
<file>
<source>${basedir}/target/config/somefile.conf</source>
<outputDirectory>${my.path}/etc</outputDirectory>
</file>
</files>
...
</assembly>
In 2.2-SNAPSHOT, the value was substituted but in 2.2-beta-2-SNAPSHOT the
literal ${my.path} is used. Is this a regression, a removed feature, or has
the syntax for doing this changed?
