[Dependent jar path as property value] Error

[Hari shankar <ha...@gmail.com>]

Am trying to use something like

<plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>org.sonatype.tycho</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-osgi-test-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>0.9.0</version>
                <configuration>
                    <argLine>-Xmx512M -javaagent:*${jacoco.agent.path}*
=destfile=C:/coverage.exec</argLine>


But for some reasons, the property is NOT getting substituted correctly (as
evident by seeing cmd arguments passed when tests are invoked and build
fails). Can someone please have a look.

   <properties>
*        <jacoco.agent.path>${org.jacoco:agent:jar}</jacoco.agent.path>*
        <test>testing</test>
    </properties>

*The value expected is the dependent jar's absolute path* and i have defined
dependency too

<dependencies>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.jacoco</groupId>
            <artifactId>agent</artifactId>
            <version>0.4.0.20100604151516</version>
        </dependency>
    </dependencies>

and it is present in local repo too.

But when i try to echo it in a antrun maven configuration (just to cross
verify), correct path is getting printed.

<plugin>
                <artifactId>maven-antrun-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>1.6</version>
                <executions>
                    <execution>
                        <phase>verify</phase>
                        <configuration>
                            <target>
                                <property name="jacoco_agent_path"
value="${jacoco.agent.path}"/>
                                <echo
message="${jacoco_agent_path}"></echo>
                            </target>
                        </configuration>
                        <goals>
