Dealing with properties in Maven 1.x

[Rakesh Patel <ra...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I am new to Maven so apologies if this is obvious to people.

I have a need to keep a set of properties and use them in various other 
files eg database connection settings need to make it to the tomcat 
server.xml file, the spring configuration file, etc.

Previously i used Ant and i would create multiple property files and 
have Ant work out which one to use during a build (the property file 
would be named in such a way as to include the current machine name). 
Not perfect (if i wanted to do a build for another machine from my box i 
had to do some manual work) but it meant I had one source of property 
values that could feed other files.

Quite a bit lost how to do something similar (or better?) in Maven 1.x.

Thanks

R
