Build Definition Arguments
Hi All
My project uses Maven2 and the build definition I have created is for
goals "assembly:assembly". I'm interested in more information about the
"Arguments" field on the build definition panel.
I'd like to send mvn an argument of the form:
-Dproject.version=9.2.0-build-${continuum.project.nextBuild.number}
Of course this is a "VM Argument". Does continuum support VM Arguments
such as this and, if it does, must I provide the -D qualifier?
Thanks, Robin.

Maven profiles can be used for this purpose. For example, You can have
one profile for non-continuum build, which can be activated only when
the Environment property project.version has a value of "
9.2.0-build-${continuum.project.nextBuild.number} ".
I think the syntax is:
<profiles>
<profile>
<activation>
<property>
<name>project.version</name>
<value>9.2.0-build-${continuum.project.nextBuild.number}</value>
</property>
</activation>
...
</profile>
Not sure if this is the best approach.

RE: Build Definition Arguments
Posted by Robin Roos <Ro...@Investec.co.uk>.
It might help if I point out WHY I wish to do this.
My POM has its version defined as:
<version>9.2.0-build-${continuum.project.nextBuild.number}</version>
The mvn assembly:assembly invocation will only work if a value is
specified for this property. When evecuting mvn from outside Continuum
I must provide a dummy value. (The assumed value of "null" is
sufficient to build the artifact but causes assembly to fail).
My intention is to define the version thus:
<version>9.2.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
So that the POM can be built from outside Continuum, but then have
continuum pass
-Dproject.version=9.2.0-build-${continuum.project.nextBuild.number} when
it invokes mvn.
Any offers?
Thanks, Robin.
