pom properties

[Randy Kamradt <Ra...@jda.com>]

There has been some confusion in the past about accessing pom properties
using the ${} notation.  I know that to access the project version you
should use ${project.version}.  But for pom defined properties is the
project prefix required?  for instance, in a pom.xml:
 
<properties>
    <one>1</one>
</properties>
 
    ${project.one}
    or....
    ${one}
 
either seems to work, but is there a preferred method?

I've noticed OS dependent effects in the expansion of such properties (I
often saw also 'pom.*' notation used)  .

The one which IMHO seems to always work is though:

${project.*}

${one} in that case, ${project.*} should be used to access the actual  
elements of the project.
