[jira] Commented: (MNG-3690) inheriting properties doesn't work if name of property is too long

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3690?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=143846#action_143846 ] 

Joseph Marques commented on MNG-3690:
-------------------------------------

sure, i'll see what i can pull together over the weekend.  in the meantime, i'll tell you that I don't use the relativePath element explicitly in any of my poms, so it should default to "../pom.xml"

from my testing, what i'm seeing happening is that it's someone reference an only version of the parent pom.xml.  if i "mvn -N install" the parent, then the child will see the updated value.

thanks in advance.

> when i used a property that was 30 characters long, it wasn't propagated.  when i shortened it to only be 20, it worked.  i don't know what the limit is, but this was a very sly bug.
