filter referencing a filter from another file

Hi,

Does Maven support filters which reference a filter from another file ? 

Example: I've got 2 filter property files:

 filter1.properties

    basepath=/tmp

 filter2.properties

    install.dir=${basepath}/myapp

 

How can I achieve that a resource containing ${install.dir}  is filtered
to "/tmp/myapp"

 

With

<filters>

    <filter> filter1.properties </filter>

    <filter> filter2.properties </filter>

 </filters>

my resource ${install.dir} is filtered to ${basepath}/myapp.

 

Any ideas ?

 

Kind regards,

Andreas
