Add compilation date in the manifest

[MATHUS Baptiste <ma...@mipih.fr>]

Hi all,

I'm looking for the variable that could be used to declare an additional property "compilationDate" in the manifest. I've been looking at this page as a starting point : http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-manifest.html 

But I can't find anywhere on the net how the variable corresponding to when the compilation process was started is called.

Thanks in advance.

I really don't know if maven already has such property/variable, but is a
quite simple write a plugin to set it in the project properties. Your plugin
could have code like the snipped below:

/**
 * @parameter default-value="${project}"
 * @required
 * @readonly
 */
private MavenProject project;

/**
 * @parameter default-value="yyyy-MM-dd"
 */
private String format;

public void execute() throws MojoExecutionException {

    String currentDate = getFormattedDate();
    project.getProperties().setProperty("currentDate", currentDate);

}

Kind Regards,
