RE: [***POSSIBLE SPAM***] - Re: Accessing POM properties in a filter - Email has different SMTP TO: and MIME TO: fields in the email addresses

${myProp1} doesn't work either.


With a POM declaring
<myProp1>Somevalue</myprop1>

A filter.file of
some.token=${myProp1}

And a resource file with
Show.me.the.value.of.some.token=${some.token}


The resource file resolves to :
Show.me.the.value.of.some.token=${myProp1}

Instead of 
Show.me.the.value.of.some.token=SomeValue

Why can't you just use ${myProp1} ? Why go through the trouble of
refering via "project.properties"?

Re: Accessing POM properties in a filter

Posted by William Ferguson <Wi...@yarris.com>.
Ah, but the filters file *is* filtered.
At least for Java System properties and for other filter tokens, and
(because of the order that the filtering mechanism is implemented) also
for values of simple POM elements (but not POM properties as they are
complex).

In order to allow replacement of POM porperties to filter files in the
same way as the others are replaced I have rasied the following JIRA and
supplied a patch.

http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRESOURCES-47


Its true, I could insert the POM properties directly into the resource
files. But many of the tokens are compounded from one or more POM
properties to produce understandable tokens instead of fragments.
So it would either require many more properties to be added to each
profile in my POM with much duplication between each profile, or it
would require the use of many non-intuitive tokens fragments in the
resource files.

Hi,

The probem is that for this to work the filters file would need to be
filtered too, which is not the case. Use your declared properties
directly in the resource files you want filtered and don't do the extra
indirection via the filters file.
