> I have created simple ear project with filters. I want to use different settings for each environment and those settings should be passed to generated *application.xml* file inside the *env-entries*. The generation of ear package is done as shown below:
> {code:xml}
>             <plugin>
>                 <artifactId>maven-ear-plugin</artifactId>
>                 <version>2.9</version>
>                 <configuration>
>                     <generateApplicationXml>true</generateApplicationXml>
>                     <version>6</version>
>                     <envEntries>
>                         <env-entry>
>                             <env-entry-name>customProperty</env-entry-name>
>                             <env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type>
>                             <env-entry-value>${custom.property}</env-entry-value>
>                         </env-entry>
>                     </envEntries>
>                     <applicationName>${custom.property}</applicationName>
>                 </configuration>
>             </plugin>
> {code}
> To read maven project properties from external properties file I had to use another plugin: [properties-maven-plugin|http://mojo.codehaus.org/properties-maven-plugin/]. It successfully reads properties from file and sets them as maven project properties, so I can insert them in pom.xml file using *${}*. It works for most of the pom.xml elements (i.e. *<applicationName>*), unfortunately it is not successfully looked up when I place it inside *env-entry* element where I need it. Below is generated *application.xml*.
> {code:xml}
>     <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
>     <application xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/application_6.xsd" version="6">
>         <application-name>default property</application-name>
>         <display-name>test</display-name>
>         <env-entry>
>             <env-entry-name>customProperty</env-entry-name>
>             <env-entry-type>java.lang.String</env-entry-type>
>             <env-entry-value>${custom.property}</env-entry-value>
>         </env-entry>
>     </application>
> {code}
> If I put project properties inside the <properties></properties> block everything works fine, but that doesn't allow me to use filters for *application.xml*.
> I'm attaching maven project with all necessary configuration. I have also submitted an issue at [Stackoverflow|http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23734249/maven-ear-plugin-project-property-lookup-fails], because I didn't have account here.
