John Casey resolved MNG-300:
----------------------------

    Resolution: Won't Fix

This will break project portability, and therefore transitive dependency resolution, not to mention anything which depends on reading POM information out of the repository.

Is there a specific reason you need this? Please email the list, and we'll try to help you out.

> I'm looking for something like Springs, PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer in pom.xml (or any other Maven config file).
> jdbc.properties snippet:
> database.connection.url=SOME_JDBC_CONNECTION_URL
> Spring's applicationContext.xml snippet:
> <!--
>     Configurer that replaces ${...} placeholders in this config file with values from properties files.
> -->
> <bean id="propertyConfigurer"
>       class="org.springframework.beans.factory.config.PropertyPlaceholderConfigurer"

>     <property name="locations">
>         <list>
>             <value>classpath:jdbc.properties</value>
>             <value>classpath:hibernate.properties</value>
>         </list>

>     </property>
> </bean>
> The PropertyPlaceholderConfigureer reads in the specified properties files and makes their contents available as replacement values throughout the rest of the config file.  This is very handy, and something that seems to be missing from Maven 1.x.
