The following comment has been added to this issue: Author: Ross Burnett Created: Tue, 23 Nov 2004 7:24 PM Body: I'm not sure if the current behaviour is by accident or design, but I believe that it is correct and should not be changed.
The project.properties file is for project-specific, not user-specific, properties. Since ${maven.home.local} is about a user's own local environment, it shouldn't be set in project.properties. Doing so could lead to build failures if not all users have access to the specified path. Or is there some valid use case that I've missed? --------------------------------------------------------------------- View this comment: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MAVEN-1509?page=comments#action_27096 --------------------------------------------------------------------- View the issue: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MAVEN-1509 Here is an overview of the issue: --------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: MAVEN-1509 Summary: Property "maven.home.local" doesn't get overriden Type: Bug Status: Unassigned Priority: Major Original Estimate: Unknown Time Spent: Unknown Remaining: Unknown Project: maven Fix Fors: 1.0.2 Versions: 1.0.1 Assignee: Reporter: Ralf Quebbemann Created: Thu, 18 Nov 2004 5:51 AM Updated: Tue, 23 Nov 2004 7:24 PM Environment: J:\programming\java\myprojects\jgig>maven -i __ __ | \/ |__ _Apache__ ___ | |\/| / _` \ V / -_) ' \ ~ intelligent projects ~ |_| |_\__,_|\_/\___|_||_| v. 1.0.1 #---- BEGIN: Which report Which.version=Which.java:($Revision: 1.2 $) WhichJar.java:($Revision: 1.2 $) java.version=1.5.0 file.encoding=Cp1252 java.ext.dirs=E:\Programme\Java\jdk1.5.0\jre\lib\ext java.class.path=E:\Programme\development\programming\maven-1.0.1\lib\forehead-1.0-beta-5.jar os.name=Windows XP java.vendor=Sun Microsystems Inc. sun.boot.class.path=E:\Programme\development\programming\maven-1.0.1\lib\endorsed\xerces-2.4.0.jar;E :\Programme\development\programming\maven-1.0.1\lib\endorsed\xml-apis-1.0.b2.jar;E:\Programme\Java\j dk1.5.0\jre\lib\rt.jar;E:\Programme\Java\jdk1.5.0\jre\lib\i18n.jar;E:\Programme\Java\jdk1.5.0\jre\li b\sunrsasign.jar;E:\Programme\Java\jdk1.5.0\jre\lib\jsse.jar;E:\Programme\Java\jdk1.5.0\jre\lib\jce. jar;E:\Programme\Java\jdk1.5.0\jre\lib\charsets.jar;E:\Programme\Java\jdk1.5.0\jre\classes java.runtime.name=Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition #---- END: Which report Installed plugins: maven-abbot-plugin-1.1 maven-announcement-plugin-1.3 maven-ant-plugin-1.8.1 maven-antlr-plugin-1.2.1 maven-appserver-plugin-2.0 maven-artifact-plugin-1.4.1 maven-ashkelon-plugin-1.2 maven-aspectj-plugin-3.2 maven-aspectwerkz-plugin-1.2 maven-caller-plugin-1.1 maven-castor-plugin-1.2 maven-changelog-plugin-1.7.1 maven-changes-plugin-1.5.1 maven-checkstyle-plugin-2.5 maven-clean-plugin-1.3 maven-clover-plugin-1.6 maven-console-plugin-1.1 maven-cruisecontrol-plugin-1.5 maven-dashboard-plugin-1.5 maven-developer-activity-plugin-1.5.1 maven-dist-plugin-1.6.1 maven-docbook-plugin-1.2 maven-ear-plugin-1.5 maven-eclipse-plugin-1.9 maven-ejb-plugin-1.5 maven-faq-plugin-1.4 maven-file-activity-plugin-1.5.1 maven-genapp-plugin-2.2 maven-gump-plugin-1.4 maven-hibernate-plugin-1.2 maven-html2xdoc-plugin-1.3.1 maven-idea-plugin-1.5 maven-j2ee-plugin-1.5.1 maven-jalopy-plugin-1.3.1 maven-jar-plugin-1.6.1 maven-java-plugin-1.4 maven-javacc-plugin-1.1 maven-javadoc-plugin-1.7 maven-jboss-plugin-1.5 maven-jbuilder-plugin-1.5 maven-jcoverage-plugin-1.0.9 maven-jdee-plugin-1.1 maven-jdepend-plugin-1.5 maven-jdeveloper-plugin-1.4 maven-jdiff-plugin-1.4 maven-jellydoc-plugin-1.3.1 maven-jetty-plugin-1.1 maven-jira-plugin-1.1.2 maven-jnlp-plugin-1.4.1 maven-junit-doclet-plugin-1.2 maven-junit-report-plugin-1.5 maven-jxr-plugin-1.4.2 maven-latex-plugin-1.4.1 maven-latka-plugin-1.4.1 maven-license-plugin-1.2 maven-linkcheck-plugin-1.3.3 maven-multichanges-plugin-1.1 maven-multiproject-plugin-1.3.1 maven-native-plugin-1.1 maven-nsis-plugin-1.1 maven-pdf-plugin-2.2.1 maven-plugin-plugin-1.5.2 maven-pmd-plugin-1.6 maven-pom-plugin-1.4.1 maven-rar-plugin-1.0 maven-release-plugin-1.4.1 maven-repository-plugin-1.2 maven-scm-plugin-1.4.1 maven-shell-plugin-1.1 maven-simian-plugin-1.4 maven-site-plugin-1.5.2 maven-struts-plugin-1.3 maven-tasklist-plugin-2.3 maven-test-plugin-1.6.2 maven-tjdo-plugin-1.0.0 maven-uberjar-plugin-1.2 maven-vdoclet-plugin-1.2 maven-war-plugin-1.6.1 maven-webserver-plugin-2.0 maven-wizard-plugin-1.1 maven-xdoc-plugin-1.8 Exception reading build.properties: E:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\peter\build.properties (Das Syste m kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden) Home Build properties: {} Description: The property "maven.home.local" doesn't get overidden anymore with an entry in project.properties.
