             Summary: Allow setting and overriding Qpid client version suffix in qpid-common.properties
                 Key: QPID-6739
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-6739
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Java Broker, Java Client, Java Common
            Reporter: Alex Rudyy
            Assignee: Alex Rudyy


At the moment qpid version suffix is set in qpidversion.properties which is generated on qpid-common build. As result, any client based on apache qpid-common cannot set the suffix without repackaging  qpid-common  and modifying  qpidversion.properties. We need to introduce a way to set and override Qpid client version suffix in external client builds in order to differentiate apache and external qpid client and broker builds

The following approach can be implemented:
# Move the public API from QpidProperties into CommonProperties and call CommonProperties everywhere where QpidProperties  is called at the moment. Remove QpidProperties class.
# qpidversion.properties will be loaded as part of of initialization CommonProperties together with loading of qpid-common.properties. Later we will load change the code to get build specific information from jar Manifest. 
# Version suffix can be set in qpid-common.properties and corresponding release version field can be set to have version suffix loaded from qpid-common.properties
