Different version of build

[ra...@jpmchase.com]

Hi All

How do i change the build or dependecy  version at run time

I mean if i have more than one module on project like Module-A, Module-B, 
those module intern has some submodules, my Module-B dependes one of 
subModdule-A but different times i need to build Module-B againt different 
version of subModule-B. i know for sure we can achieve this thru changing 
dependency section of Module-B but instread of that i tried having 
something like <version>${subModule-A.version}</version> and then tried 
having properties <subModule-A.version>4.3</subModule-A.version> in my 
settings.xml Profile, and also tried by passing it has system property as 
-DsubModule-A.version=4.3, but both ways its throwing error. saying it 
couldn't resolve dependency for ${subModule-A.version} 

Is there way to make pom.xml to subsitute that ${subModule-A.version} 
value to take either from settings.xml or from system property

Its been driving crazy, Please if some one has done this can u share your 
solution for this??



Thanks,
Raghu

Pople generally use the <dependencyManagement> configuration for
situations like these.

You need to specify the version number in one place (in the depMgmt in
root project) and then omit the version in other <dep> references.
