[jira] Commented: (MNG-3817) Property inheritance when filtering with multiple profiles is gone

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3817?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=154094#action_154094 ] 

Benjamin Bentmann commented on MNG-3817:
----------------------------------------

Clarification:
Maven versions before 2.0.9 do *not* provide default versions for the plugins, this is a new feature introduced in Maven 2.0.9 (MNG-3395). Previously, you just got LATEST for any plugin whose version was not explicitly specified. LATEST being quite subject to time and other environmental aspects, this is a suboptimal choice for anybody seeking reproducible builds.

Moral:
Always specify the desired version for each and every plugin your build uses.

> first.properties:
> prop=first_value
> second.properties:
> other_prop=${prop}
> since 2.0.9 the value of 
>     other_prop 
> is not replaced and is written as ${prop}, instead of inherit the value 'first_value', when executing
>    mvn -Pfirst,second process-resources
> This breaks existing configurations badly and I do not see a workaround whithout losing the ability to configure in more than one dimension, which makes mvn 2.0.9 quite unsuable for project requirements in real life.
