[jira] Commented: (MASSEMBLY-178) filtering doesn't read filter files

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MASSEMBLY-178?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_88060 ] 

John Franey commented on MASSEMBLY-178:
---------------------------------------

The documentation is wrong for versions 2.1 and 2.2-SNAPSHOT.  The filters element is really a child of <build> element not the plugin's <configuration>.  To be attached is a patch to the documentation.

I got this to work with maven 2.0.4 and versions 2.1 and 2.2-SNAPSHOT of the assembly plugin.

I was unable to use your pom with version 2.0 of the assembly plugin because the goal 'attached' does not apparently exist in that version of the plugin.  I guess when you selected 'version' for this issue report, you didn't mean to select 2.0.

> The assembly plugin's filtering supports POM properties like ${project.artifactId}, but not properties read from the filter file, contrary to the documentation here:
> http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/examples/single/filtering-some-distribution-files.html
> I've attached a sample app demonstrating the problem. You can run it by saying "mvn clean package." It tries to filter a README file with both ${project.artifactId} and ${homer}. ${homer} is defined in filter.properties like this:
> homer=woohoo
> But when you run the plugin, only ${project.artifactId} is filtered.
