[jira] (MANTRUN-177) Ant properties not passed to maven 3.0.4

Darryl L. Miles commented on MANTRUN-177:
-----------------------------------------

A quick look from my point of view you are setting the property:

<property name="filters.file" value="../filters/filters.pc.properties"/> 

For the execution of the maven-antrun-plugin only.  But you have it configured in the pom.xml as <build><filters><filter> I am sure this behavior was not supported even in Maven 2.x it happened to work by chance not engineering.

Why don't you setup a pom.xml section:

<properties>
 <filter.file>../foobar</filter.file>
</properties>

and remove the <property ..../> element from the antrun configuration ?  what would be wrong with that ?  the path being used it setup is still configured in the same pom.xml file.

The only new thing that would happen is that any children pom's would inherit the value, but maybe there is a way to inhibit that?  check maven documentation on <properties> sections.

> I have a pom.xml that uses maven-antrun-plugin v 1.7 in phase "validate"
> to detect the run environment, and based on that set the appropriate
> filters file path as property "filters.file". exportAntProperties is set to
> true. The filters.file property is supposed to be used in the filters tag
> like this:
>   <build>
>       <filters>
>         <filter>${filters.file}</filter>
>       </filters>
>  .
>  .
>  .
> This worked when I was using maven 2.2.1, but since I upgraded to maven
> 3.0.4, the value for filters.file is no longer being passed to the <filter>
> tag.
> I have attached a test pom.xml I created to demonstrate the problem. If "mvn install" is run with maven 2.2.1, the value for ${filters.file} is passed to maven (the install will fail after this because it is a dummy test, but it is clear that the ${filters.file} value has been passed correctly). If I run it with maven 3.0.4, the value for ${filters.file} is not passed to maven. I have attached and the maven build log from the failed 3.0.4 "mvn install".
