"Major" improvement proposal for all of our build scripts ;-)

[Christofer Dutz <ch...@c-ware.de>]

?Hi guys,


just one thing ... while starting to work on a general maven release feature to our ant builds, I noticed that we don't actually have a consistent way of defining the version of a library. Usually we simply produce some artifact without a version number. I would like to at least include a version number property in each of our builds so you can immediately see what's the version we're working on and I can automatically access the version in the maven targets.


So what do you think about this? I would like to add something like "project.version" or similar to the build.xml

Hi,

All of the source and binary releases have a version number in the artifact name, internally most of the build files use ${version} or ${release.version}, but I guess your referring to something else?

Thanks,
Justin
