Passing Version number thru properties in depdency section

[ra...@jpmchase.com]

Hi All,

As i'm not getting much reponse on my earlier post, here i'm posting again 
the same question

i already tried

1. Passing proj.version thru system property as -Dproj.version
2. First did mvn install on Module-A then tried 



I have some weird problem in may be pom inheritance

This is what my dirctory structure

Project
    Module A
        SubModule-A
                        |-pom.xml
       |-pom.xml

     Module B
        SubModule-B
                        |- pom.xml
          |-pom.xml
|-pom.xml

lets say i have SubModule-A has a dependency in my SubModule-B

in my SubModule-B pom.xml i have
                <dependency>
                        <groupId>Project.ModuleA</groupId>
                        <artifactId>SubModule-A</artifactId>
                        <version>${proj.version}</version>
                        <type>jar</type>
                        <scope>provided</scope>
                </dependency>
 

here ${proj.version} comes from my .m2>settings.xml

When i run mvn deploy from top level (ie) c:\project everything works fine

but when i just want to deploy lets say Module B then when i ran mvn 
deploy from c:\project\ModuleB

its giving me error

Any suggestion??


Thanks,

I have also tried this and came to the same conclusion - properties in the
version tag are not expanded. I dont know if this is intended behaviour.
