Christophe Domas commented on MASSEMBLY-178:
--------------------------------------------

The assembly descriptor documentation (http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-assembly-plugin/assembly.html) says that it's possible to filter fileSets: 

 <fileSets>
    <fileSet>
      <directory/>
      <lineEnding/>
      <filtered/>
      <useStrictFiltering/>
      <useDefaultExcludes/>
      <outputDirectory/>
      <includes/>
      <excludes/>
      <fileMode/>
      <directoryMode/>
    </fileSet>
  </fileSets>
  <files>
    <file>
      <source/>
      <outputDirectory/>
      <destName/>
      <fileMode/>
      <lineEnding/>
      <filtered/>
    </file>
  </files>

but it doesn't work with version 2.2-beta1. Could you fix it? I would prefer that you fix the code more than the doc ;-)

> 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.
