Need to change parameters of War, when overlay.
Hi,
Using assembly i have generated a parent war. I need to use this parent
war in another child project, This parent war also having parameters like
${path}.
Now i run install command for child project. The parent war getting
extracted.
But i unable to replace the ${path} parameter value from the child pom.
Thank for the people who try to give answer.

You cannot use *Maven* properties in your application. You need to use some
Java JRE call or equivalent in your application to load the configuration
at startup or run time. Your pom is merely loading the properties from a
file so that *maven* can use them during build time, i. e. you could
reference them in your pom like ${my.property.name}. This will *not* by
itself make this property available to your application.

I have tried with externalize property file named as
*"my-file.properties"*. I configured in pom for externalize as given below,
<plugin>
<groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
<artifactId>properties-maven-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.0-alpha-1</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>initialize</phase>

</goals>
<configuration>
<files>
<file>*my-file.properties*</file>
</files>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
But, It does not support.
Please *suggest* me best way to *externalize properties*.

You could externalize the configuration bits of "current.vertical.title"
into a config file or jndi parameter and have the web application read it
at runtime/during startup.
I doubt the WAR plugin can filter resources which are already packaged as
WAR, that is: have already gone through phase process-resources during
build of your "parent war". It *might* be possible with a bunch of plugin
configuration (rtfm), but me personally would go for the "externalize"
solution.

Re: Need to change parameters of War, when overlay.

Here i am given the problem in detail..
*Environment Details*,
Apache Maven 2.2.1
Java version: 1.6.0_20
Spring2
*Generating Parent War*
I have create a war from the common resource without mention the property
value.
This war has been generated by maven-assembly command.
Then, i am getting the war in my target folder as
"rdpv-core-webapp-1.1.war".
This war will be used as parent war.
(For example consider one of my common resource is
"applicationContext-service.xml"
This xml file handle a property *"${current.vertical.title}"* as given
below,
<bean
class="com.radaptive.rdpv.admin.service.impl.AccountServiceImpl">
<property name="accountDAO">
<ref bean="accountDAO" />
</property>
<property name="userCache">
<ref bean="userCache" />
</property>
<property name="messageResource">
<ref bean="logResourceForService" />
</property>
<property name="auditLogSerivce">
<ref bean="auditLogSerivce"/>
</property>
<property
name="currentVertical"><value>*${current.vertical.title}*</value></property>
</bean>
)
*Deploy Child Project*
Now, I create a child project with parent war dependency as given below,
<dependency>
<groupId>org.radaptive.core</groupId>
<artifactId>rdpv-core-webapp</artifactId>
<version>1.1</version>
<type>war</type>
</dependency>
Also i mention the property value in this pom.xml as
*"<current.vertical.title>IDEAMED</current.vertical.title>"*
*Here my complexity* is,
When i run install command for child project, this parent war getting
extracted in my deploy path.
But, Still the replacement of the property values change does not occur.

I recently dealt with this exact challenge.
In the "child" war project that you are overlaying the parent with, you
need to configure the webResource section and turn filtering on like so:
In this example I will filter on any xml file in the WEB-INF folder.
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<webResources>
<webResource>
<directory>${basedir}/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF</directory>
<includes>
<!--filter on xml files-->
<include>**.xml</include>
</includes>
<targetPath>WEB-INF</targetPath>
<filtering>true</filtering>
<!-***************HERE****************-->
</webResource>
</webResources>
</configuration>
</plugin>

Yes, You given correct solution to me.

I am not sure I understand the problem exactly. But one option you could
look at is separating the two tasks.
You could first use the maven dependency plugin to unpack the parent war.
<resources>
<!--Reference the build directory so we can apply the resource
filtering to it-->
<resource>
<directory>${project.build.directory}/</directory>
<filtering>true</filtering>
</resource>
</resources>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-dependency-plugin</artifactId>
<executions>
<execution>
<id>unpack</id>
<goals>
<goal>unpack-dependencies</goal>
</goals>
<!--We bind to generate resources phase so the
resource filtering can be applied to the result -->
<phase>generate-resources</phase>
<configuration>
<outputDirectory>${project.build.directory}/</outputDirectory>
<includeArtifactIds>parent-war</includeArtifactIds>
<excludeTransitive>true</excludeTransitive>
</configuration>
</execution>
</executions>
</plugin>
Next, you could then assemble a new war using the assembly plugin.
The order at which each step occurs can be dictated by the lifecycle phase
you select for each:

As mentioned earlier, you are probably trying to do something that you
should not.
You might want to look at 2 blog articles that I wrote, with some help
from Stephen Connolly, that gives you a better approach to your problem.
http://blog.artifact-software.com/tech/?p=150
http://blog.artifact-software.com/tech/?p=58
A lot of people use Spring in multiple environments - test, development,
production for different client run-times, etc..
Your approach is not the right way to do it.
- JNDI is.
- There are other tools as well.
I am sure that if you ask in the Springframework forum about the best
way to use Maven to produce Spring WARs targeted at different run-time
environments, you will get a lot of good answers.
The people helping you have the best of intentions but are helping you
to go where you will always be unhappy.
You are trying to make Maven solve a Spring design problem.

I excuse for not properly execute of Ryan sample plugin configuration.
Now, Once again i tried and i faced the problem as given below,
While install command executes, First child application deploy with
filtering, then parent war getting overlay.
How to change this order, when install.

Ryan gave you an answer with a sample plugin configuration. Why didn't
you try it, or tell him why it isn't working for you?

What is a parent war?
Describe your application a bit more and environment a bit more.
