Properties file in Maven

Hi 

I am a new user of Maven. I have been looking for using external
property files in Maven. However I couldn't find any. 
Does maven provide this option (like ANT) for using an external property
file? 

Best Regards
Nirmala

No, not in core Maven. However, I found this plugin:
http://haroon.sis.utoronto.ca/zarar/properties-maven-plugin/

However, if you want to use properties in resource files the resource plugin
can handle external files when doing the filtering:
