How to populate a property files with information from the POM?

[Paul Spencer <pa...@apache.org>]

I would like to populate a properties file with information from the 
POM. What is the best way to accomplish this objective?

As an example I would like Maven to create a and populate 
${maven.build.dest}version.properties.  This file would contain:
   application.name=MyApplication
   application.version=1.0

Hi Paul

Check out the Ant task called PropertyFile. Its an optionnal task.
With this one, you can create new property files or modify existing ones.

So with a clever mix of jelly code, the pom object and this tag you 
should be able to do it.

Hope it helps.

Eric.
