Variables in xdoc files?
For an internal use plugin, I would like my site to include download
instructions that show the proper Maven command to get the current
version of the plugin. Since the plugin's project.xml has the current
version, it seems reasonable that I could have the plugin's index.xml
have something like:
<source>
>maven plugin:download -Dversion=${pom.currentVersion}
-DgroupId=prodinfo-plugin -DartifactId=prodinfo-plugin
</source>
However, this does not work.
I've also tried $pom.currentVersion as well as $!project.currentVersion
since that mirrors the $!project.name that is found in the
maven-xdoc-plugin template index.xml. All I end up with is the text
${pom.currentVersion}
What am I missing?

That xdocs aren't scripts.
If you have a look at the xdoc plugin and it's templates, you'll see
that these templates are used to generate xdoc files from the
project.xml.
You could do something similar in your plugin.
